Article Synopsis
- Biofouling on medical devices and biosensors significantly impacts performance and longevity, necessitating effective coatings to combat this issue.
- Poly(ethylene glycol) and zwitterionic polymers are traditional solutions, but new research explores polyacrylamide-based copolymer hydrogels through high-throughput screening, revealing some nonintuitive compositions outperform existing standards.
- The study leverages machine learning to understand the molecular features of these hydrogels, which demonstrate superior anti-biofouling abilities in both lab models and live rodent tests, potentially enhancing the functionality and lifespan of in vivo sensing devices.
