Abstrakt: The synthesis and evaluation of new dopamine-based catechol anchors coupled to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) for surface modification of TiO(2) are reported. Dopamine is modified by dimethylamine-methylene (7) or trimethylammonium-methylene (8) groups, and the preparation of mPEG-Glu didopamine polymer 11 is presented. All these PEG polymers allow stable adlayers on TiO(2) to be generated through mild dip-and-rinse procedures, as evaluated both by variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The resulting surfaces substantially reduced protein adsorption upon exposure to full human serum.
