Selective adsorption of protein on polymer surfaces studied by soft X-ray photoemission electron microscopy
Abstract
X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (X-PEEM) using synchrotron radiation illumination in the C 1s, N 1s and O 1s regions has been used to characterize a phase segregated polystyrene/polymethylmethacrylate (PS/PMMA) polymer thin film, and to map the adsorption of fibrinogen (a blood plasma protein) on this surface from both isotonic, buffered, and low ionic strength, unbuffered aqueous solutions at varying fibrinogen concentrations. The …
