Glycopolymers bearing oligosaccharides with narrow polydispersity indexes (<1.4) were synthesized using a ‘post- click’ chemistry method. A polymer backbone was synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization with acrylamide derivatives. Maltose, lactose, 3′-sialyllactose and 6′-sialyllactose were added to the polymer backbone and corresponding glycopolymers were obtained. The interactions between the glycopolymers and lectins were evaluated by a quartz crystal microbalance measurement. The interactions between the glycopolymers and influenza viruses were evaluated by hemagglutination inhibition assay.
