A recent investigation by the authors has demonstrated the permeabilization activity of the precursor for a phosphazenium salt, which was used as a polymerization activator in RSC Adv., 2012, 2, 8606–8609 and remained in the product as a trace contaminant. 8-Hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt (HPTS) assays and black lipid membrane (BLM) experiments have con rmed that this precursor has lipid bilayer permeabilization activity
Ndings that speci cally verify the contribution of the phosphazenium salt to the polymer's permeabilization properties are unavailable, the authors highlight that the data published in the article are not sufficient to conclude that the poly(crown ethers) alone possess permeabilization activity
