Title: Synthesis and characterisation of a new amphotericin B-methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) conjugate.

Abstract: The reaction of methoxypoly(ethylene glycol)-4-nitrophenyl carbonate with amphotericin B has been used to prepare a new conjugate of amphotericin B (mPEG-AmB). A preliminary screening of in vitro antifungal activity has suggested that mPEG-AmB possesses a similar effect and a similar spectrum of activity as the conventional amphotericin B formulated with sodium desoxycholate.
