Abstract(s)

Biocompatible and biodegradable water‐soluble dendrimers comprising ureas within the interior and amino groups on the periphery were synthesized in supercritical carbon dioxide (dendrimer of generation 1 shown in picture). This novel class of dendrimers shows a pH‐dependent intrinsic blue fluorescence at very low concentrations, which makes them potential polymeric fluorescent cell markers.
