Characterization data for HB-PNIPAM-Van polymer materials. ^a Molar masses obtained using SEC (methanol, 3 × 30 cm PolarGel columns (Agilent PLC) and using RI and viscometry). ^b F_van = percentage of branch points terminating in vancomycin end groups and ^c F_py percentage of branch points terminating in pyrrole carbodithioate end groups (¹H-NMR)). ^d Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) obtained by calorimetry.
