Universal surface-initiated polymerization of antifouling zwitterionic brushes using a mussel-mimetic peptide initiator

We report a universal method for the surface-initated polymerization (SIP) of an antifouling polymer brush on various classes of surfaces, including noble metals, metal oxides, and inert polymers. Inspired by the versatility of mussel adhesive proteins, we synthesized a novel bifunctional tripeptide...
