Fig. 1From: Development of a universal, oriented antibody immobilization method to functionalize vascular prostheses for enhanced endothelialization for potential clinical applicationSchematic diagram of the coating procedure. The ability of dopamine to deposit on multiple substrates through self-polymerization is the foundation of the universality of the coating method developed in this study (panel a). After removal of the protective t-boc group, hydrazides in the linker react with aldehydes created by oxidation of cis-diols in the polysaccharide moieties of Fc region (panel b), resulting in oriented antibody coating (panel c)Back to article page
