Superior antibacterial surfaces using hydrophilic, poly(MPC) and poly(mOEGMA) free chains of amphiphilic block copolymer for sustainable use

Surface modification of electrically neutral hydrophilic polymers is one of the most promising methods for preventing biofouling and biological contamination by proteins and bacteria. Surface modification of inorganic materials such as silica-based glass can render them more durable and thus help in...
