BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:1001. [PMID: 38131761 PMCID: PMC10741689 DOI: 10.3390/bios13121001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a cost-effective and portable microfluidic paper-based sensor is proposed for the simultaneous and rapid detection of glucose, free amino acids, and vitamin C in fruit. The device was constructed by embedding a poly(carboxybetaine acrylamide) (pCBAA)-modified cellulose paper chip within a hydrophobic acrylic plate. We successfully showcased the capabilities of a filter paper-based microfluidic sensor for the detection of fruit nutrients using three distinct colorimetric analyses. Within a single paper chip, we simultaneously detected glucose, free amino acids, and vitamin C in the vivid hues of cyan blue, purple, and Turnbull's blue, respectively, in three distinctive detection zones. Notably, we employed more stable silver nanoparticles for glucose detection, replacing the traditional peroxidase approach. The detection limits for glucose reached a low level of 0.049 mmol/L. Meanwhile, the detection limits for free amino acids and vitamin C were found to be 0.236 mmol/L and 0.125 mmol/L, respectively. The feasibility of the proposed sensor was validated in 13 different practical fruit samples using spectrophotometry. Cellulose paper utilizes capillary action to process trace fluids in tiny channels, and combined with pCBAA, which has superior hydrophilicity and anti-pollution properties, it greatly improves the sensitivity and practicality of paper-based sensors. Therefore, the paper-based colorimetric device is expected to provide technical support for the nutritional value assessment of fruits in the field of rapid detection.

Abstract
Polymeric membranes are selective materials used in a wide range of applications that require separation processes, from water filtration and purification to industrial separations. Because of these materials' remarkable properties, namely, selectivity, membranes are also used in a wide range of biomedical applications that require separations. Considering the fact that most organs (apart from the heart and brain) have separation processes associated with the physiological function (kidneys, lungs, intestines, stomach, etc.), technological solutions have been developed to replace the function of these organs with the help of polymer membranes. This review presents the main biomedical applications of polymer membranes, such as hemodialysis (for chronic kidney disease), membrane-based artificial oxygenators (for artificial lung), artificial liver, artificial pancreas, and membranes for osseointegration and drug delivery systems based on membranes.

Abstract
We examined the effects of alkyl carbon spacer length (CSL) and molecular weight on fouling resistance and release properties of zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) brushes. Using surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization, we synthesized two series of brushes with CSL = 3 and 4 and molecular weight from 19 to 1500 kg ·mol-1, corresponding to dry brush thickness from around 6 to 180 nm. The brush with CSL = 3 was nearly completely wet with water (independent of molecular weight), whereas the brush with CSL = 4 exhibited a strong increase in water contact angle with molecular weight. Though the two-brush series had distinct wetting properties, both series of brushes exhibited similarly great resistance against fouling by Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria and Aspergillus niger fungi spores when submerged in water, indicating that neither molecular weight nor CSL strongly affected the antifouling behavior. We also compared the efficacy of brushes against fouling by fungi and silicon oil in air. Brushes grafted to filter paper were strongly fouled by fungi and silicon oil in air. Grafting the polymers to the filter paper, however, greatly enhanced removal of the foulant upon rinsing. The removal of fungi and silicon oil when rinsed with a salt solution was enhanced by 219 and 175%, respectively, as compared to a blank filter paper control. Thus, our results indicate that these zwitterionic brushes can promote foulant removal for dry applications in addition to their well-known fouling resistance in submerged conditions.

Abstract
The grafting of zwitterionic molecules onto solid surfaces is an important tool for decreasing the unwanted adsorption of biomolecules, such as proteins, bacteria, and cells. This has been achieved through various approaches, such as zwitterionic monolayer/multilayer formation, surface-initiated polymerization of zwitterionic monomers, and grafting of presynthesized zwitterionic polymers. Recently, a coordination-driven approach to grafting zwitterionic polymers onto solid surfaces has been discovered to be an effective method because of its versatility and robustness. However, the bacterial adhesion resistance of zwitterionic polymer grafting has been explored using only one molecular weight, and the non-biofouling performance against other fouling organisms has remained unexamined. In this study, the characteristics of coordination-driven surface zwitteration are systematically investigated. Sulfobetaine (SB) polymers with three different molecular weights are synthesized and employed for surface grafting. Polydopamine is used as a surface primer, and SB polymers are grafted onto the surfaces via the formation of metal-mediated coordinate bonds. The effect of molecular weight on the grafting efficiency and non-biofouling performance is investigated via protein adsorption and marine diatom adhesion assays. The SB polymer with a high molecular weight is found to be crucial for achieving strong resistance to protein adsorption and marine fouling.

Abstract
Antifouling polymer coating surfaces are used in widespread industries applications. Zwitterionic polymers have been identified as promising materials in developing polymer coating surfaces. Importantly, the density of the polymer chains is crucial for acquiring superior antifouling performance. This study introduces two different zwitterionic polymer density surfaces by applying molecular modeling tools. To assess the antifouling performance, we mimic static adsorption test, by placing the foulant model bovine serum albumin (BSA) on the surfaces. Our findings show that not only the density of the polymer chain affect antifouling performance, but also the initial orientation of the BSA on the surface. Moreover, at a high-density surface, the foulant either detaches from the surface or anchor on the surface. At low-density surface, the foulant does not detach from the surface, but either penetrates or anchors on the surface. The anchoring and the penetrating mechanisms are elucidated by the electrostatic interactions between the foulant and the surface. While the positively charged ammonium groups of the polymer play major role in the interactions with the negatively charged amino acids of the BSA, in the penetrating mechanism the ammonium groups play minor role in the interactions with the contact with the foulant. The sulfonate groups of the polymer pull the foulant in the penetrating mechanism. Our work supports the design of a high-density polymer chain surface coating to prevent fouling phenomenon. Our study provides for the first-time insights into the molecular mechanism by probing the interactions between BSA and the zwitterion surface, while testing high- and low-densities polymer chains.

Abstract
Polymer zwitterions continue to emerge as useful materials for numerous applications, ranging from hydrophilic and antifouling coatings to electronic materials interfaces. While several polymer zwitterion compositions are now well established, interest in this field of soft materials science has grown rapidly in recent years due to the introduction of new structures that diversify their chemistry and architecture. Nonetheless, at present, the variation of the chemical composition of the anionic and cationic components of zwitterionic structures remains relatively limited to a few primary examples. In this article, we highlight the versatility of 4-vinylbenzyl sultone as a precursor to ammonium sulfonate zwitterionic monomers, which are then used in controlled free radical polymerization chemistry to afford "inverted sulfobetaine" polymer zwitterions. An evaluation of the solubility, interfacial activity, and solution configuration of the resultant polymers revealed the dependence of properties on the selection of tertiary amines used for nucleophilic ring-opening of the sultone precursor, as well as useful properties comparisons across different zwitterionic compositions.

Abstract
Treatment of wounds in special areas is challenging due to inevitable movements and difficult fixation. Common cotton gauze suffers from incomplete joint surface coverage, confinement of joint movement, lack of antibacterial function, and frequent replacements. Hydrogels have been considered as good candidates for wound dressing because of their good flexibility and biocompatibility. Nevertheless, the adhesive, mechanical, and antibacterial properties of conventional hydrogels are not satisfactory. Herein, cationic polyelectrolyte brushes grafted from bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibers are introduced into polydopamine/polyacrylamide hydrogels. The 1D polymer brushes have rigid BC backbones to enhance mechanical property of hydrogels, realizing high tensile strength (21-51 kPa), large tensile strain (899-1047%), and ideal compressive property. Positively charged quaternary ammonium groups of tethered polymer brushes provide long-lasting antibacterial property to hydrogels and promote crawling and proliferation of negatively charged epidermis cells. Moreover, the hydrogels are rich in catechol groups and capable of adhering to various surfaces, meeting adhesive demand of large movement for special areas. With the above merits, the hydrogels demonstrate less inflammatory response and faster healing speed for in vivo wound healing on rats. Therefore, the multifunctional hydrogels show stable covering, little displacement, long-lasting antibacteria, and fast wound healing, demonstrating promise in wound dressing.

Abstract
Recently, cellulose-based stimuli-responsive nanomaterials have received significant attention because of its natural source and biocompatibility. In this study, cellulose-graft-poly(nisopropylacrylamide)-co-2-methyl-acrylic acid 2-carbazol-9-yl-ethyl ester (cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)) block polymers were successfully synthesized by homogeneous atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) in LiCl/N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) dissolution system. The block polymers showed different properties due to the different PCz content. The block polymer with low PCz content (cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)1) was dispersed in water at 25 °C and self-assembled into micelles at 37 °C. On the other hand, the block polymer with high PCz content (cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)2) was dissolved in DMF, THF, DMSO firstly, and dialyzed at 25 °C, 37 °C and 60 °C respectively to obtain the micelles. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) indicated that the distribution range of micelles formed by cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)1 was narrower than cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)2. And the sizes of the micelles formed by cellulose-g-(PNIPAAm&PCz)2 had little difference under different solvents, but became bigger with the temperature increased. The micelles displayed thermo-enhanced fluorescence due to the thermal-driven chain dehydration of the grafted PNIPAAm brushes, which is contrary to the decrease of the fluorescence of the monomer when the temperature increased. The results provided a potential for the application of cellulose-based stimuli-responsive micelles in the field of drug delivery and fluorescent probes.

Abstract
This work presents nanofibrous membranes made of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine-co-methacryloyloxyethyl butylurethane) (PMBU) for promoting the healing of acute and chronic wounds. Membranes were prepared by an electrospinning process, which led to matrixes with a pore size mimicking the extracellular matrix. PMBU greatly improves the hydration of membranes, resulting in very low biofouling by protein or bacteria and enhanced blood compatibility while the cell viability remains close to 100%. This set of properties exhibited by the suitable combination of physical structure and material composition led to applying the zwitterionic nanofibrous membranes as wound-dressing materials for acute and chronic wounds. The results demonstrated that the zwitterionic membrane could compete with commercial dressings in terms of wound-healing kinetics and could outperform them with regard to the quality of new tissue. Histological analyses suggested that inflammation was reduced while proliferative and maturation phases were accelerated, leading to homogeneous re-epithelialization. This study unveils another potential biomedical application of antifouling zwitterionic membranes.

Abstract
Wood is actually a natural polymers composite that is easy to process, mainly constituted of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. However, most wood-based functional materials are prepared by physical methods, which undoubtedly limit the application of wood-based materials. Herein, the wood aerogel (WA) was obtained from wood by delignification and freezing dried. The WA then was fabricated into an unexpected photochromic wood aerogel (PWA) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) covalently grafting poly{6-[4-(4-methoxyphenyl-azo)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate} (PMAZOM). Both WA and PWA showed good compression resilience. The hydrophobicity of PWA was obviously enhanced because of the surface modification. The color of PWA can change from yellow to orange-red after being irradiated by UV light for 30 s. The color of sample can be reversibly changed to yellow under sunlight for 200 s. The lightweight and photosensitive wood aerogel is potential to apply for optical information storage materials and photosensitive devices.

Green and sustainable method of manufacturing anti-fouling zwitterionic polymers-modified poly(vinyl chloride) ultrafiltration membranes. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 591:343-351. [PMID: 33618292 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2021.01.107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2020] [Revised: 01/15/2021] [Accepted: 01/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) method for ultrafiltration (UF) membrane fabrication relies on the extensive use of traditional solvents, thus ranking first in terms of ecological impacts among all the membrane fabrication steps. Methyl-5-(dimethylamino)-2-methyl-5-oxopentanoate (PolarClean), as a green solvent, was utilized in this study to fabricate poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) UF membranes. Subsequently, in post-treatment process, zwitterionic polymer, [2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl] dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium hydroxide (DMAPS), was grafted onto the membrane surface to enhance its anti-fouling properties using a greener surface-initiated activator regenerated by electron transfer-atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET-ATRP) reaction. This novel method used low toxicity chemicals, avoiding the environmental hazards of traditional ATRP, and greatly improving the reaction efficiency. We systematically studied the grafting time effect on the resulted membranes using sodium alginate as the foulant, and found that short grafting time (30 min) achieved excellent membrane performance: pure water permeability of 2872 L m-2 h-1 bar-1, flux recovery ratio of 86.4% after 7-hour fouling test, and foulant rejection of 96.0%. This work discusses for the first time the greener procedures with lower environmental impacts in both fabrication and modification processes of PVC UF membranes.

Abstract
Diseases and complications related to catheter materials are severe problems in biomedical material applications, increasing the infection risk and medical expenses. Therefore, there is an enormous demand for catheter materials with antibacterial and antifouling properties. Considering this, in this work, we developed an approach of constructing antibacterial surfaces on polyurethane (PU) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). A variety of cationic polymers were grafted on PU. The biocompatibility and antifouling properties of all resulting materials were evaluated and compared. We also used a theoretical algorithm to investigate the anticoagulant mechanism of our PU-based grafts. The hemocompatibility and anti-biofouling performance improved at a 86–112 μg/cm2 grafting density. The theoretical simulation demonstrated that the in vivo anti-fouling performance and optimal biocompatibility of our PU-based materials could be achieved at a 20% grafting degree. We also discuss the mechanism responsible for the hemocompatibility of the cationic brushes fabricated in this work. The results reported in this paper provide insights and novel ideas on material design for applications related to medical catheters.

Abstract
Copolymer brushes with different ratios of sulfobetaine methacrylate (SBMA) and [2-(Acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride (DAC) were grafted from transparent cellulose membrane (CM) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) method for improving its antifouling and antibacterial performance. Surface concentrated copolymer grafting on the cellulose membranes can be obtained without significantly sacrificing the transparency and mechanical properties. The zwitterionic PSBMA chains of the copolymers can lead to an extremely hydrophilic surface with significantly reduced non-specific protein adsorption and bacterial attachment, therefore, leading to satisfying antifouling and antibacterial property. While the PDAC chains of the copolymers improved antibacterial performance against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria due to the presence of quaternary ammonium groups, the PDAC modified CM (CM-1) possessed best antibacterial performance, reaching to 95.1 % against S. aureus and 90.5 % against E. coli, respectively. More importantly, the biocompatibility of all grafted CM was retained, leading to over 100 % cell viability.

Abstract
Cellulose paper has strong potential as an analytical platform owing to its unique characteristics. In the present study, we investigated a procedure for functionalizing the surface of cellulose paper by dip-coating a mixture of a functional polymer and a perfluoroalkylated surfactant (surfactant 1). The functional polymer comprised a mixture of methyl methacrylate and poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate monomers. The monomer ratio in the functional polymer affected the hydrophilicity and water absorbance of the cellulose paper after dip-coating. Furthermore, the presence of surfactant 1 during dip-coating promoted the surface segregation of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) moieties in the polymer, which enhanced the hydrophilicity, prevented nonspecific protein adsorption, and maintained the water absorbance of the dip-coated cellulose paper. Dip-coating with another functional polymer containing biotin groups produced a cellulose paper with a biotin-decorated surface in a one-step procedure. The displayed biotin groups immobilized avidin on the surface, and the PEG moieties in the polymer prevented nonspecific protein adsorption. We then immobilized a thrombin-binding DNA aptamer on the avidin-immobilized cellulose paper to prepare a paper-based analytical device. It is possible to visualize thrombin in model solutions and serum using the paper-based analytical device.

Abstract
Bulk blending is considered as one of the most effective and straightforward ways to improve the hemo-compatibility of blood-contacting polymeric biomaterials among many surface modification methods. Zwitterionic structure-, glycocalyx-like structure-, and heparin-like structure-based oligomers have been synthesized as additives and blended with base polymers to improve the blood compatibility of base polymers. Fluorinated end- and side-functionalized oligomers could promote the migration of functionalized groups to the surface of biomedical polymers without changing their bulk properties, and it highly depends on the number and concentration of functional groups. Moreover, oligomers having both zwitterion and fluorine are receiving considerable attention due to their desirable phase separation, which can avoid undesired protein adsorption and platelet adhesion. The surface analysis of the surface-modified materials is usually investigated by analytical tools such as contact angle measurement, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Blood compatibility is mainly evaluated via platelet adhesion and protein adsorption test, and the result showed a significant decrease in the amount of undesirable adsorption. These analyses indicated that surface modification using bulk blending technique effectively improves blood compatibility of polymeric biomaterials.

Abstract
As a type of functional group, azo-derivatives are commonly used to synthesize responsive materials. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), prepared by acid hydrolysis of cotton, were dewatered and reacted with 2-bromoisobuturyl bromide to form a macro-initiator, which grafted 6-[4-(4-methoxyphenyl-azo) phenoxy] hexyl methacrylate (MMAZO) via atom transfer radical polymerization. The successful grafting was supported by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Solid magnetic resonance carbon spectrum (MAS 13C-NMR). The morphology and surface composition of the poly{6-[4-(4-methoxyphenylazo) phenoxy] hexyl methacrylate} (PMMAZO)-grafted CNCs were confirmed with Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The grafting rate on the macro-initiator of CNCs was over 870%, and the polydispersities of branched polymers were narrow. The crystal structure of CNCs did not change after grafting, as determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The polymer PMMAZO improved the thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystals, as shown by thermogravimetry analysis (TGA). Then the PMMAZO-grafted CNCs were mixed with polyurethane and casted to form a composite film. The film showed a significant light and pH response, which may be suitable for visual acid-alkali measurement and reversible optical storage.

Abstract
Zwitterions of charge-balanced units have super-low fouling properties induced by ionic solvation, but their extensive applications in polymeric substrates are strictly constrained by current constructing strategies. A zwitterion-like, charge-balanced ultrathin layer with high antifouling capacity was covalently constructed on delicate aromatic polyamide (PA) reverse osmosis (RO) membranes via a mild and solvent-free grafting-to strategy. Two oppositely charged commercial short-chain carbonyl alkenes, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and methacryloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride (DMC), were directly mixed-grafted with amino groups on PA RO membrane surface via Michael addition. Under ambient temperature and pressure, these oppositely charged compounds were assembled into a zwitterion-like, charge-balanced ultrathin layer. The dynamic fouling experiments indicated that the modified membrane exhibited strong antifouling properties and excellent permeation recovery abilities. Surface characterization revealed that the selective layer thickness and surface roughness were not measurably changed. More meaningful is that the typical ridge-and-valley surface structure and the excellent separation performance were both well preserved after modification. This opens a universal avenue to construct a zwitterion-like, ultrathin antifouling layer on the delicate polymer substrate without compromising its original matrix structure and performance, which has promising application in areas of biosensors, tissue engineering, and biomaterials.

Abstract
Some polyzwitterionic brushes exhibit a strong "anti-polyelectrolyte effect" and ionic specificity that make them versatile platforms to build smart surfaces for many applications. However, the structure-property relationship of zwitterionic polymer brushes still remains to be elucidated. Herein, we aim to study the structure-dependent relationship between different zwitterionic polymers and the anti-polyelectrolyte effect. To this end, a series of polyzwitterionic brushes with different cationic moieties (e.g., imidazolium, ammonium, and pyridinium) in their monomeric units and with different carbon spacer lengths (e.g., CSL = 1, 3, and 4) between the cation and anion were designed and synthesized to form polymer brushes via the surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. All zwitterionic brushes were carefully characterized for their surface morphologies, compositions, wettability, and film thicknesses by atomic force microscopy, contact angle measurement, and ellipsometry, respectively. The salt-responsiveness of all zwitterionic brushes to surface hydration and friction was further examined and compared both in water and in salt solutions with different salt concentrations and counterion types. The collective data showed that zwitterionic brushes with different cationic moieties and shorter CSLs in salt solution induced higher surface friction and lower surface hydration than those in water, exhibiting strong anti-polyelectrolyte effect salt-responsive behaviors. By tuning the CSLs, cationic moieties, and salt concentrations and types, the surface wettability can be changed from a highly hydrophobic surface (∼60°) to a highly hydrophilic surface (∼9°), while interfacial friction can be changed from ultrahigh friction (μ ≈ 4.5) to superior lubrication (μ ≈ 10-3). This work provides important structural insights into how subtle structural changes in zwitterionic polymers can yield great changes in the salt-responsive properties at the interface, which could be used for the development of smart surfaces for different applications.

Abstract
To improve the antifouling (AF) properties of photobioreactors (PBR) for microalgal cultivation, using trihydroxymethyl aminomethane (tris) as the linking agent, a series of polyethylene (PE) films grafted with sulfobetaine (PE-SBMA) with grafting density ranging from 23.11 to 112 μg cm-2 were prepared through surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). It was found that the contact angle of PE-SBMA films decreased with the increase in the grafting density. When the grafting density was 101.33 μg cm-2, it reached 67.27°. Compared with the PE film, the adsorption of protein on the PE-SBMA film decreased by 79.84% and the total weight of solid and absorbed microalgae decreased by 54.58 and 81.69%, respectively. Moreover, the transmittance of PE-SBMA film recovered to 86.03% of the initial value after cleaning, while that of the PE film recovered to only 47.27%. The results demonstrate that the AF properties of PE films were greatly improved on polySBMA-grafted surfaces.

Abstract
Developing a facile but efficient anti-fouling surface coating is highly required for metallic implants. Here, we report two kinds of zwitterionic copolymers (both random and block) bearing phosphonic/phosphonate motifs/segments as novel metal anchorable antifouling coatings. Through conventional free radical polymerization and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, three types of zwitterionic-phosphonic random copolymers with varying mol. ratios (9 : 1, 8 : 2, and 6 : 4) and a phosphonate-zwitterionic block copolymer were precisely prepared based on zwitterionic sulfobetaine methacrylate (SBMA) and phosphonate/phosphonic methacrylate. As evidenced by XPS and water contact angle tests, the two kinds of copolymers with distinguished presenting manners of the metal-anchorable phosphonate/phosphonic motifs were all successfully immobilized on the Ti substrates through a facile one-step post-functionalization. The immobilized copolymers equally exhibited strong inhibition of protein adsorption, platelet adhesion, and bacterial adhesion, endowing significantly improved antifouling ability to the metallic substrates. This work not only provides a novel approach to improve the antifouling ability of Ti substrates, the utilization of phosphonic/phosphonate based copolymers as efficient metal-anchorable coatings may offer a new platform for versatile surface functionalization of many metallic substrates.

Abstract
Functionalized biomaterial surface patterns capable of resisting nonspecific adsorption while retaining their bioactivity are crucial in the advancement of biomedical technologies, but currently available biomaterials intended for use in whole blood frequently suffer from nonspecific adsorption of proteins and cells, leading to a loss of activity over time. In this review, we address two concepts for the design and modification of blood compatible biomaterial surfaces, zwitterionic modification and surface functionalization with glycans – both of which are inspired by the membrane structure of mammalian cells – and discuss their potential for biomedical applications.

Abstract
The generation of polymer brushes by surface-initiated controlled radical polymerization (SI-CRP) techniques has become a powerful approach to tailor the chemical and physical properties of interfaces and has given rise to great advances in surface and interface engineering. Polymer brushes are defined as thin polymer films in which the individual polymer chains are tethered by one chain end to a solid interface. Significant advances have been made over the past years in the field of polymer brushes. This includes novel developments in SI-CRP, as well as the emergence of novel applications such as catalysis, electronics, nanomaterial synthesis and biosensing. Additionally, polymer brushes prepared via SI-CRP have been utilized to modify the surface of novel substrates such as natural fibers, polymer nanofibers, mesoporous materials, graphene, viruses and protein nanoparticles. The last years have also seen exciting advances in the chemical and physical characterization of polymer brushes, as well as an ever increasing set of computational and simulation tools that allow understanding and predictions of these surface-grafted polymer architectures. The aim of this contribution is to provide a comprehensive review that critically assesses recent advances in the field and highlights the opportunities and challenges for future work.

Abstract
To overcome the thrombogenic reactions of hydrocarbon-based biomaterials in clinical blood treatment, we introduce a model study of surface zwitterionization of a polypropylene (PP) substrate using a set of well-defined copolymers for controlling the adhesion of blood cells in vitro. Random and block copolymers containing zwitterionic units of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC), [3-(methacryloylamino)propyl]dimethyl(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide inner salt (SBAA), or nonionic units of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) with a controlled hydrophobic segment of 70% n-butyl methacrylate (BMA) units in these polymers were synthesized through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. A systematic study of how zwitterionic and nonionic copolymer architectures associated with controlled chain orientation via hydration processes affect blood compatibility is reported. The surface wettability of PP substrates coated with the block copolymer with poly(MPC) (PMPC) segments was higher than that of the random copolymer poly(MPC-random-BMA). However, only the random copolymers with SBAA units demonstrate a higher surface wettability. The PP substrate coated with nonionic copolymers containing HEMA units showed relatively lower hydration capability associated with higher protein adsorption, platelet adhesion, and leukocyte attachment than those with zwitterionic copolymers. The random copolymer poly(SBAA-random-BMA) coated on the PP substrates exhibited resistance to cell adhesion in human whole blood at a level comparable to that of MPC copolymers. An ideal zwitterionic PP substrate could be obtained by coating it with a block copolymer composed of PMPC and poly(BMA) (PBMA) segments, PMPC-block-PBMA. The water contact angle decreased dramatically from approximately 100° on the original PP substrate to 11° within 30 s. The number of blood cells attached on PMPC-block-PBMA decreased significantly to less than 2.5% of that on original PP. These results prove that the rational design of zwitterionic polymers incorporated with a hydrophobic anchoring portion provides a promising approach to reduce blood cell adhesion and protein adsorption of hydrocarbon-based biomaterials applied in direct contact with human whole blood.

Abstract
Blood purification systems, in which the adsorbent removes exogenous and endogenous toxins from the blood, are widely used in clinical practice. To improve the protein resistance of and detoxification by the adsorbent, researchers can modify the adsorbent with functional molecules, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). However, achieving precise control of the functional molecular density, which is crucial to the activity of the adsorbent, remains a significant challenge. In the present study, we prepared a model system for blood purification adsorbents in which we controlled the integration density of PVP molecules of different molecular weights on an Au substrate by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). We characterized the samples with atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and QCM-D and found that the molecular density and the chain length of the PVP molecules played important roles in determining the properties of the sample. At the optimal condition, the modified sample demonstrated strong resistance to plasma proteins, decreasing the adsorption of human serum albumin (HSA) and fibrinogen (Fg) by 92.5% and 79.2%, respectively. In addition, the modified sample exhibited excellent detoxification, and the adsorption of bilirubin increased 2.6-fold. Interestingly, subsequent atomistic molecular dynamics simulations indicated that the favorable interactions between PVP and bilirubin were dominated by hydrophobic interactions. An in vitro platelet adhesion assay showed that the adhesion of platelets on the sample decreased and that the platelets were maintained in an inactivated state. The CCK-8 assay indicated that the modified sample exhibited negligible cytotoxicity to L929 cells. These results demonstrated that our method holds great potential for the modification of adsorbents in blood purification systems.

Abstract
Healable antifouling films are fabricated by the exponential layer-by-layer assembly of PEGylated branched poly(ethylenimine) and hyaluronic acid followed by post-crosslinking. The antifouling function originates from the grafted PEG and the extremely soft nature of the films. The rapid and multiple healing of damaged antifouling functions caused by cuts and scratches can be readily achieved by immersing the films in normal saline solution.

Abstract
As one of the most abundant natural materials in nature, cellulose has revealed enormous potential for the construction of functional materials thanks to its sustainability, non-toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Among many fascinating applications, functional surfaces based on cellulose-derived materials have attracted increasing interest recently, as platforms for diagnostics, sensoring, robust catalysis, water treatment, ultrafiltration, and anti-microbial surfaces. This mini-review attempts to cover the general methodology for the fabrication of functional cellulose surface and a few popular applications including bioactive and non-adhesive (i.e., anti-fouling and anti-microbial) surfaces.
