Abstract

Poly(L-lysine)-g-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL-g-PEG) copolymers with various grafting ratios were adsorbed to niobium pentoxide-coated silicon wafers and characterized before and after protein adsorption using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Three proteins of different sizes, myoglobin (16 kD), albumin (67 kD), and fibrinogen (340 kD), were studied. XPS was used to quantify the amount of protein adsorbed to the bare and PEGylated surfaces. ToF-SIMS and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to study protein conformational changes on these surfaces. The smallest protein, myoglobin, generally adsorbed in higher numbers than the much larger fibrinogen. Protein adsorption was lowest on the surfaces with the highest PEG chain surface density and increased as the PEG layer density decreased. The highest adsorption was found on lysine-coated and bare niobium surfaces. ToF-SIMS and PCA data evaluation provided further information on the degree of protein denaturation, which, for a particular protein, were found to decrease with increasing PEG surface density and increase with decreasing protein size.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
