Stimuli-sensitive layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly systems have generated much interest
among researchers worldwide due to the simplicity of the process by which they are …

One of the barriers to understanding structure–property relations for glycosaminoglycans
has been the lack of constructive interplay between the principles and methodologies of the …

The thermodynamics and the driving forces of the adsorption of β-lactoglobulin on spherical
polyelectrolyte brushes (SPB) are investigated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The …

It is reported in the literature that introducing amino groups on the surface improves cellular
behaviour due to enhanced wettability and the presence of the positive charge. In this work …

We developed a highly efficient, biocompatible surface coating that disperses bacterial
biofilms through enzymatic cleavage of the extracellular biofilm matrix. The coating was …

At the moment two competing explanations exist for the experimental finding that net
negatively charged proteins adsorb on or absorb in negatively charged polyelectrolyte …

Surface modification with linear polymethacrylic acid (20 kDa), linear and branched
polyethylenimine (25 kDa), and branched oligoethylenimine (800 Da) is commonly used to …

We explored the use of self-assembled microgels to inhibit the bacterial colonization of
synthetic surfaces both by modulating surface cell adhesiveness at length scales …

Polycationic polymers are widely used in capillary electrophoresis (CE) as surface coatings
to prevent protein adsorption and control electroosmotic flow (EOF). Such semi-permanent …

We report enhanced electrochemical detection of a cardiac biomarker using a combination
of a disposable microfluidic immunochip fabricated in Vacrel® 8100 photoresist film and a …
