Abstract: Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been widely used for modifying surfaces to reduce non-specific interactions with biomolecules, microorganisms, and cells. Herein, we report a sticktight-inspired PEGylation strategy to fabricate low-fouling coatings. The influence of PEG molecular… read more here.
