PDMAEMA-PHB-PDMAEMA triblock copolymers are denoted as DHD, and the numbers in brackets indicate the indicative molecular weight of the respective block in hundred g/mol. The effect of temperature (a) and pH (b) on the drug release profile of PDMAEMA-PHB-PDMAEMA micelles. Confocal images of HeLa cell uptake by incubating with (c) Pluronic F127 micelles and (d) PDMAEMA-PHB-PDMAEMA, DHD(21-21-21) micelles. The scale bar denotes 20 mm.
