Abstract
Amphiphilic derivatives of amino acids or peptides are provided, comprising a polyhydroxylated hydrophilic part derived from a sugar, from a polyol, from an aminopolyol or from an oligosaccharide, and at least one hydrophobic part derived from a hydrocarbon, fluorocarbon, or a mixed fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon, saturated or unsaturated, having from 5 to 20 carbon atoms, the hydrophobic part(s) being linked to the hydrophilic part by a junction bearing an amino acid or a peptide.
