چکیده

This contribution describes the preparation of nonfouling polypeptide brushes via surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol) modified L-lysine N-carboxyanhydrides. Circular dichroism experiments indicated that these surface-anchored polypeptide chains assume an α-helical conformation, which does not change between pH 4 and 9. Furthermore, nonspecific adsorption of fluorescent labeled bovine serum albumin and fibrinogen on glass slides modified with these brushes was greatly reduced compared to unmodified glass substrates.

Versatile synthesis and micropatterning of nonfouling polymer brushes on the wafer scale.

In this article, the authors describe new approaches to synthesize and pattern surfaces with poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl methacrylate] (POEGMA) polymer brushes synthesized by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. These patterned coatings confer "nonfouling" properties protein and cell resistance-to the surface in a biological milieu. The versatile routes for the synthes...

Two-Dimensional Controlled Syntheses of Polypeptide Molecular Brushes via N-Carboxyanhydride Ring-Opening Polymerization and Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization

Well-defined molecular brushes bearing polypeptides as side chains were prepared by a "grafting through" synthetic strategy with two-dimensional control over the brush molecular architectures. By integrating N-carboxyanhydride ring-opening polymerizations (NCA ROPs) and ring-opening metathesis polymerizations (ROMPs), desirable segment lengths of polypeptide side chains and polynorbornene brush...

Cell fouling resistance of polymer brushes grafted from ti substrates by surface-initiated polymerization: effect of ethylene glycol side chain length.

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...

Antibacterial and antifouling polymer brushes incorporating antimicrobial peptide.

Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has been used to prepare antifouling copolymer brushes based on 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate (MEO(2)MA) and hydroxyl-terminated oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (HOEGMA). The amount of hydroxyl reactive groups incorporated into the brushes was varied by changing the composition of the monomer mixture. These coatings were ...

Polypeptoid brushes by surface-initiated polymerization of N-substituted glycine N-carboxyanhydrides.

Polypeptoid brushes were synthesized by surface-initiated polymerization of N-substituted glycine N-carboxyanhydrides on self-assembled amine monolayers. Using the presented grafting-from approach, polypeptoid brush thicknesses of approximately 40 nm could be obtained as compared to previously reported brush thicknesses of 4 nm. Moreover, hydrophilic, hydrophobic and amphiphilic polymer brushes...
