| description | ABSTRACTPolymer fabrics are versatile materials used in various fields. Surface modification methods for hydrophobic polymer fibers have been developed to endow the materials with water wettability and functionality. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to freely introduce functional groups to polymer fiber surfaces in a simple manner. Herein, we report the decoration of nonwoven fabric surfaces with azidated cello-oligosaccharide assemblies via molecular self-assembly. Cello-oligosaccharides with a terminal azido group were enzymatically synthesized and allowed to self-assemble in polyolefin, polyester, and vinylon nonwoven fabrics. It was found that the functional oligosaccharides formed bark-like assemblies on the nonwoven fiber surfaces, probably through heterogeneous nucleation. The hydrophilic oligosaccharide assemblies made the hydrophobic nonwoven surfaces water-wettable. Moreover, the azido group at oligosaccharide terminal was available for the post-functionalization of the modified nonwovens. In fact, an antigen was successfully conjugated to the modified nonwovens via the click chemistry. The antigen-conjugated nonwovens were useful for the specific and quantitative detection of a corresponding antibody. Our findings demonstrate the great potential of cello-oligosaccharide assembly for the functionalization of fabrics and other polymeric materials. |
