Abstract

The dynamic light scattering method was used to study the process of complex formation of cholesterol-containing polymers of vinylsaccharide 2-deoxy-2-methacrylamido-D-glucose (double and ternary copolymers) in water solutions in the different polymer mole ratio. Compared to the initial ternary cholesterol-containing copolymer the conditions of compaction of the complex formed are found.
