Adsorption of Fibrinogen and Lysozyme on Silicon Grafted with Poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine) via Surface-Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization
Abstract
Surfaces based on grafted poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (poly(MPC)) "brushes" with a constant graft density of 0.39 chain/nm2 and chain length from 5 to 200 monomer units were prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) on silicon wafers. The chain length and layer thickness of the poly(MPC) grafts were varied via the ratio of MPC to sacrificial initiator. The surfaces were characterized by water …
