Abstract

The strong surface hydration layer of nonfouling materials plays a key role in their resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption. Poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (polySBMA) is an effective material that can resist nonspecific protein adsorption and cell adhesion. About eight water molecules are tig...
