Dendrimers are globular, hyperbranched polymers possessing a high concentration of surface functional groups and internal cavities. These unique features make them very useful in many biomedical applications, especially as carrier molecules. In this study, the interaction of tryptophan and 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid with three types of polyamidoamine dendrimers was examined. It was observed that the type of dendrimer surface group has a strong impact on the interactions between the dendrimers and fluorescent molecules.
