Protein adsorption and stability of poly(ethylene oxide)-modified surfaces having hydrophobic layer between substrate and polymer

The materials covered with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) are of use in a wide variety of biomaterials due to blood compatibility of this polymer. The long-term sustainability of its blood compatibility strongly depends on the stability of the PEO layer against aqueous environment. An attempt was made i...
