Upon contact with bodily fluids/tissues, exogenous materials spontaneously develop a layer
of proteins on their surface. In the case of biomedical implants and equipment, biological …

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 …

Functionalized self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates on gold were used to
study citrated human plasma protein adsorption by ellipsometry and antibody techniques in …

Low protein adsorption is believed advantageous for blood-contacting materials and
ethylene glycols (EG)-based polymeric compounds are often attached to surfaces for this …

Adsorption of the tripeptide, l-glutathione or GSH, was performed from vapour phase on Au
(111) and monitored in situ by polarisation modulation reflection absorption infrared …

Gold‐containing chromatographic beads were used to record spectra of the tripeptide
glutathione and the protein immunoglobulin G (IgG) by surface‐enhanced Raman scattering …

This paper explores the interfacial properties of one-dimensional molecular gradients of
alkanethiols (HS–(CH2) n–X) on gold. The kinetics and thermodynamics of monolayer …

In haemostatic and biomaterial research biological processes at surfaces and in the bulk
phase of the surface-contacting medium are important. The present work demonstrates the …

Four different carbonyl-containing self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates on
gold were studied to assess the impact of the functional group linked to the carbonyl upon its …

Infrared spectroscopy is used to investigate the adsorption of D2O onto self-
assembledmonolayers of methyl 16-mercaptohexadecanoate on gold. The D20 molecules …
