Summary
Evidences of the interaction of an hydrophobic anion (ANS) with various cationic copolymers have been obtained by fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescence intensity changes depend on the structure, the cationicity, the copolymer concentration and were interpretated in terms of microenvironment of the fluorescent probe. The enhanced affinity observed was attributed to the contribution of the alkyle substituents of the polyelectrolytes.
