Polyelectrolyte multilayer coatings that resist proteinadsorption at rest and under stretching

Abstract

A surface coating based on polyelectrolyte multilayers containing phosphorylcholine modified poly(acrylic acid) (PAA-PC) is shown to strongly prevent protein adsorption even under mechanical stretching of the substrate.
