Rapid construction of an effective antifouling layer on a Au surface via electrodeposition

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jun 28;50(51):6793-6. doi: 10.1039/c4cc01329h.

Abstract

A new approach to immobilize zwitterionic molecules rapidly and highly efficiently on a gold surface applies aniline-based electrodeposition. The zwitterion-functionalized antifouling surface enables a decrease of the adsorption of non-specific proteins by 95% from fetal bovine serum (FBS, 10%).
