Journal ArticleDOI
Protein-rejecting ability of surface-bound dextran in end-on and side-on configurations: comparison to PEG.
Eva Österberg,Karin Bergström,Krister Holmberg,Thomas P. Schuman,J. A. Riggs,N. L. Burns,J. M. Van Alstine,J. M. Harris +7 more
TL;DR: This work compared the fibrinogen-rejecting ability and the effect on electrophoretic mobility of three polymer coatings bound to polystyrene to elucidate the importance of polymer packing density and polymer layer thickness on protein adsorption and reduction of electrokinetic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetable Oil-derived Epoxy Monomers and Polymer Blends: A Comparative Study with Review
Rongpeng Wang,Thomas P. Schuman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, EGS esters of epoxidized fatty acids derived from soybean oil (EGS) and linseed oil (ELO) have been used for fabrication of structural and structurally complex epoxy composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of polysaccharide and poly(ethylene glycol) coatings for reduction of protein adsorption on polystyrene surfaces
Eva Österberg,Karin Bergström,Krister Holmberg,Jennifer A. Riggs,J. M. Van Alstine,Thomas P. Schuman,Norman L. Burns,J. Milton Harris +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the same polymers were coupled to polystyrene latex particles to permit examination by analytical microparticle electrophoresis, and it was shown that adsorbed polysaccharides form thicker layers than do covalently bound poly-charides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dielectric properties of polymer-particle nanocomposites influenced by electronic nature of filler surfaces.
TL;DR: Data indicate that significant reduction in leakage currents and dielectric losses and improvement in dielectrics breakdown strengths resulted when electropositive phenyl, electron-withdrawing functional groups were located at the polymer-particle interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Branching and Molecular Weight of Surface-bound Poly(ethylene Oxide) on Protein Rejection.
Karin Bergström,Eva Österberg,Krister Holmberg,Allan S. Hoffman,Thomas P. Schuman,A Kozlowski,J H Harris +6 more
TL;DR: Some practical problems in preparation of PEO glycidyl ethers have been clarified, thus making these PEO derivatives more useful for surface modification.
