Antibacterial coating is necessary to prevent biofilm-forming bacteria from colonising
medical tools causing infection and sepsis in patients. The recent coating strategies such as …

Antifouling polymers have been proven to be vital to many biomedical applications such as
medical implants, drug delivery, and biosensing. This review covers the major development …

Protein adsorption on surfaces greatly impacts many applications such as biomedical
materials, anti-biofouling coatings, bio-separation membranes, biosensors, antibody protein …

We have synthesized two different polyacrylamide polymers with amide groups (polySBAA
and polyHEAA) and two corresponding polyacrylate polymers without amide groups …

Upon contact with bodily fluids, synthetic materials spontaneously acquire a layer of various
species (most notably proteins) on their surface. The concern with respect to biomedical …

Through a combination of in situ ellipsometry and streaming zeta potential measurements,
we investigated the swelling behavior of weak polybasic brushes as a function of pH and the …

The morphology and physicochemical properties of polydopamine are not totally inherent
and undergo changes with differing reaction conditions like the choice of solvent used for …

Major challenges in the development of effective stimuli-responsive nanogels as targeted
drug and gene delivery carriers are to improve biocompatibility, stability, and controlled …

In this paper, a series of fluorinated amphiphilic copolymers composed of 2-
perfluorooctylethyl methacrylate (FMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) monomers …

The fouling from four human body fluids–blood plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and saliva–
and four animal fluids–foetal bovine and calf sera, egg and milk–relevant to human and …
