| Abstract | In this work, nonfouling polypeptides with homogenous alternating charges were synthesized by polycondensation of the covalently bonded dimer of glutamic acid (E) and lysine (K) (EK dimer) with benzyloxycarbonyl (Z)-protected side chains. This facile method successfully solved the uniformity problem of nonfouling peptides caused by the copolymerization of two different monomers and enabled the incorporation of various terminal functional groups for future applications. The molecular weights (MWs) of the nonfouling peptides can be easily controlled by the ratio of the terminal group, lipoic acid, to the EK dimer. The nonfouling peptides can form self-assembling monolayers (SAMs) on a gold surface through two terminal thiol groups, which were characterized by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ellipsometry (ELL). The resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption, cell attachment and bacterial adhesion of these nonfouling peptide SAMs and the in vitro cytotoxicity and haemolytic activity of these peptides were also evaluated. The results show that the lowest relative protein adsorptions of antibody (anti-IgG) and fibrinogen (Fg) on the SAMs are 5.1 ± 1.6% and 7.3 ± 1.8%, respectively, determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), where the protein adsorption on a tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) surface was set to 100%. Almost no obvious cell attachment and bacterial adhesion were observed, and no cytotoxicity and no haemolytic activity in vitro were detected. With the advantages of biocompatibility, biodegradability and the abundance of moieties for ligand immobilization, these nonfouling peptides developed by the facile method can be used in a wide range of biomedical applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
