• the polymers were determined based on the varying fluorescence properties of pyrene, depending on the polarity of the surrounding medium [21]. The values correlate well with the polymer size and lie between 6.0 × 10−7 M for the smallest and 1.5 × 10−7 M for the biggest polymer. Encapsulation methods
