An experimental-theoretical analysis of protein adsorption on peptidomimetic polymer brushes.
Surface-grafted water-soluble polymer brushes are being intensely investigated for preventing protein adsorption to improve biomedical device function, prevent marine fouling, and enable applications in biosensing and tissue engineering. In this contribution, we present an experimental-theoretical analysis of a peptidomimetic polymer brush system with regard to the critical brush density requir...
متن کاملCritical adsorption of a single macromolecule in polymer brushes.
The adsorption of long flexible macromolecules by polymer brush-coated surfaces is studied by molecular dynamics simulations and by calculations using density functional and self-consistent field theories. The case of repulsive interactions between the substrate surface and the monomers of both the brush polymers and the extra chains that can get absorbed into the brush is considered. Under goo...
متن کاملProtein Adsorption on Polymer Particles
Protein adsorption on polymer particles has significant importance in biomedical applications, both in vitro and in vivo. It has, therefore, been studied from all viewpoints for the last two decades, but the results were inconsistent due to its complexity. It is not an exaggeration to say that nobody knows what exactly happens at the interfaces between proteins and particles. Proteins are so la...
متن کاملShear of polymer brushes
We have measured the normal, lateral and hydrodynamic forces that act between polymer-brush-bearing surfaces immersed in a good-solvent medium, both when stationary and when in motion with respect to each other. At low sliding velocities we find a very marked decrease in the frictional force between the surfaces, an effect interpreted in terms of a fluid interfacial layer resulting from the non...
متن کاملDetection of Polymer Brushes developed via Single Crystal Growth
Single crystals consisting various surface morphologies and epitaxial structures were applied to investigate the effect of other phase regions in the vicinity of a given tethered chains-covered area having a certain molecular weight of amorphous brushes. The designed experiments demonstrated that regardless of the type of surface morphology (patterned and especial mixed-brushes, homo and co...
