Layer-by-layer films of polysaccharides modified with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) and poly(vinyl alcohol).

N-grafted copolymers of chitosan (460 kDa) with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (2.4 kDa) or poly(vinyl alcohol) (2.0 ​kDa) as side chains were synthesized.

Layer-by-layer films of polysaccharides modified with polyethylene glycol and dextran.

Layer-by-layer (LbL) films with enhanced resistance to protein adsorption were obtained on the basis of N-grafted copolymers of chitosan with polyethylene glycol (PEG) or dextran (DEX). The copolymers with the backbone molecular weight of 18 and 450 kDa, side chains of PEG of 5.0 and 0.
