Article Synopsis
- The study addresses the challenge of protein adsorption on biomedical implants by exploring nonfouling hydrogels made from a balanced mixture of positively and negatively charged monomers.
- The research details the creation and characterization of these hydrogels, focusing on their swelling, water content, surface charge, and compressional strength.
- Results show that the hydrogels effectively resist protein attachment, similar to existing nonfouling materials, but indicate potential for improvement in their nonfouling properties through further composition adjustments.
