TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide state-of-the-art scientific and technical information in a clear format and consistent structure making it suitable for formal course work or self-instruction.

TL;DR: The focus of this review is on the surface engineering aspects of biologically motivated micropatterning of two-dimensional (flat) surfaces with the aim to provide an introductory overview and critical assessment of the many techniques described in the literature.

TL;DR: In this paper, a class of copolymers based on poly(l-lysine)-g-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL-g-PEG) was found to spontaneously adsorb from aqueous solutions onto several metal oxide surfaces, such as TiO2, Si0.4Ti0.6O2 and Nb2O5, as measured by the in situ optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy technique and by ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectrograph.

TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption kinetics of three model proteins (human serum albumin, fibrinogen and hemoglobin) were measured and compared using three different experimental techniques: optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS), ellipsometry (ELM) and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM-D).

TL;DR: Poly(l-lysine)-g-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL-g-PEG) is a member of a family of polycationic PEG-grafted copolymers that have been shown to chemisorb on anionic surfaces, including various metal oxidizers.
