The Effect of and L on Protein Adhesion to PEO
• At very high surface densities , SAMs will resist adsorption of all types of proteins, with universal resistance achieved at lower for higher molecular weight (larger L) SAMs
• L is not as influential as • The highest L at optimum is most
effective at protein resistance• Adhesion is temperature-dependent

Effect of Chain Architecture on Protein

Mayes, A. M.; Irvine, D. J.; Griffith, L. G. Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc. 1998, 530, 73-84.
In contrast to linear polymers, the center mass for star polymers lies at some distance away from the surface.
This results in a much more energetically favored state for protein adhesion at the surface, once diffusion through the polymer layer is achieved

Conclusions• Design of biomaterials is challenged by the
complicated, interrelated factors involved in of achieving biocompatibility: i.e. protein resistance vs cell specificity
• Because they are easily tailored to meet specific chemical needs, polymers are often used as coatings on compliance-matched devices
• Optimization of polymer coatings is a delicate balance among a) size, architecture, and even supramolecular structure of the polymer, b) the density of the polymer layer, c) the type of underlying substrate and its electrostatic properties, d) the identity of the targeted proteins, and e) the magnitudes of the forces the biomaterial will be subjected to in vivo
