Abstract:
A multiplexed screening methodology for the rapid development of antifouling polymer surfaces is presented. An array of protein resistant polymer layers with high grafting (>100 mg m(-2)) were polymerized on optically encoded particles. Multiplexed analysis showed a 97% reduction in nonspecific protein adsorption for all polymer layers created.
