A Facile and Versatile Method to Endow Biomaterial Devices with Zwitterionic Surface Coatings

The surface modification of implantable biomaterials with zwitterionic phosphorylcholine polymer is demonstrated through mussel-mimetic catecholamine polymer thin films. Using this method, the surfaces of alginate hydrogel microspheres and polystyrene microbeads, a model material known to produce ro...
