Hydrodynamic diameter and polydispersity was determined by DLS, elution volume (V R) by SEC, and absolute molecular weight by MALS. Error values are standard deviations (N = 3). See Figure 1 for description of samples.
Theoretical MW was calculated by multiplying the average molecular weight of each monomer with sixty. NA indicates that it is not possible to predict the theoretical MW for crosslinked constructs.
