A novel pH and temperature sensitive block copolymer was prepared by adding pH sensitive moiety to temperature sensitive block copolymer. This block copolymer solution showed a reversible sol-gel transition by a small pH change in the range of pH 7.4-8.0 and also by the temperature change in the region of body temperature. The very precise molecular weight control of block copolymer and the prudential tuning of hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance were needed to control the phase diagram. This block copolymer solution forms a gel at 37 degrees C, pH 7.4 (human body). When the block copolymer solution is at room temperature and pH 8.0 as a sol state, both the temperature and pH change are needed for the gelation. This material can be employed as injectable carriers for hydrophobic drugs and proteins, etc. Gelation inside the needle can be prevented by an increase in the temperature during injection, because it does not change into the gel form with only increasing temperature. This material can be used for even a long guide catheter into the body. The block copolymer hydrogel which shows the sol-gel transition by the small pH change from pH 8.0 to pH 7.4 has merits in the delivery system for protein and cells which show cytotoxicity in acidic (below pH 6.5) or basic (above pH 8.5) conditions. This block copolymer system could be used as a template technology for injectable delivery systems.
