The non-biofouling properties of a zwitterionic sulfobetaine polymer surface were easily made attractive to bioentities (e.g., proteins and cells) by metal-polyphenol coating, and spatio-selective functionalization of the zwitterionic polymer surface was achieved by using a soft lithographic technique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
