Keeping it sticky when wet Some biological molecules are remarkably sticky, even to surfaces submerged in water. Mussel adhesion, for example, is based on the overproduction of dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) and proteins with a high abundance of catio

Catechols are found as functional groups in Nature as the 3,4-dihydroxy isomer, generally with electron donating substituents and as the 2,3-dihydroxy isomer, with an electron withdrawing substituent. Adhesive properties of catechol materials rely on

Metal coordination, hydrogen bonding, redox reactions, and covalent crosslinking are seemingly disparate chemical and physicochemical processes that are all accomplished in natural materials by the catechol functional group. This review focuses on th

Mussel foot proteins (Mfps) exhibit remarkably adaptive adhesion and bridging between polar surfaces in aqueous solution despite the strong hydration barriers at the solid–liquid interface. Recently, catechols and amines—two functionalities that

In physiological fluids and seawater, adhesion of synthetic polymers to solid surfaces is severely limited by high salt, pH, and hydration, yet these conditions have not deterred the evolution of effective adhesion by mussels. Mussel foot proteins pr
