In this study, a pH-responsive hydrogel consisting of a 4-arm poly(ethylene glycol)-
block
-poly(L-glutamic acid) (4a-PEG-PLG) copolymer was developed and used for the controlled release of peptide and protein drugs. It was found that the mechanical properties and degradation processes of the hydrogels could be tuned by changing the polymer c...
