6. By "coloring" we mean a polymer-analogous reaction, which converts the monomer units at the surface of the globule from hydrophobic to polar type. This approach was realized in the series of papers where hydrophilization of a globular surface was achieved by grafting of short poly(ethylene oxide) chains to the thermosensitive poly(isopropylacrylamide) backbone. In particular, it was shown that grafting to a globular surface (a kind of surface "coloring") leads to a more efficient hydrophilization (solution becomes turbid at higher temperatures) than random grafting in the coil conformation (at room temperature).
