Cell and Protein Fouling Properties of Polymeric Mixtures Containing Supramolecular Poly(ethylene glycol) Additives
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fouling properties of new biomaterials are important for the performance of a material in a biological environment. Here, a set of three supramolecular polymeric additives consisting of ureidopyrimidinone (UPy)-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (UPyPEG) were formulated with UPy-modified polycaprolactone into thin supramolecular material films. The antifouling properties of these material films were determined by investigation of the relation of cell adhesion and protein adsorption on these materials films. The presence of the UPyPEG additives at the surface of the films was evident by an increased hydrophilicity. Adhesion of human epithelial and endothelial cells was strongly reduced for two of the UPyPEG-containing films. Analysis of adsorption of the first three proteins from the Vroman series, albumin, γ-globulin, and fibrinogen, using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation in combination with viscoelastic modeling, revealed that the surfaces containing the UPyPEG additives had a limited effect on adsorption of these proteins. Despite a limited reduction of protein adsorption, UPyPEG-containing mixtures were non-cell-adhesive, which shows that non-cell-adhesive properties of supramolecular polymer surfaces are not always directly correlated to protein adsorption.

This paper presents a comparative study on the antifouling properties of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based polymer coatings prepared by surface-initiated polymerization (SIP). Three types of poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (POEGMEMA) polymer thin films of approximate 100 nm thickness were grafted from a catechol initiator that was immobilized on a Ti substrate. OEGMEMA mo...
