Abstract
Water-insoluble four-component polymers, comprising glycine (Gly), phenylalanine (Phe), 1,2-ethanediol, and adipic acid, were synthesized. These polymers exhibited degrading solubilization upon incubation with chymotrypsin. It was found that the degradation rate of the polymer could be controlled by altering the Phe/Gly ratio.
