Scheme for CAm and CAmG synthesis from CMC (top) and structures of anionic dyes used in this study (bottom). In this scheme, although cationization at the CMC C6 hydroxyl group is illustrated, cationization also can occur at other unsubstituted hydroxyl groups of CMC. In addition, crosslinking can potentially occur in any hydroxyl groups of CAm. These possibilities were omitted in the scheme for simplicity.
