Abstract
p-Sulfonatocalix[6] arene is shown to form insoluble complexes with poly( a llylamine hydrochloride) when the charge balance between the negative calix arene sulfonate groups matches the positive charge carried by the polyelect rolyte, this makes this glycosylaminoglycan analog an interesting candidate for controlled release systems in the case of proteins encapsulated in mes oscopic complexes with polyelectrolytes.
