Abstract

Adsorption and desorption of fibronectin (FN) were investigated at thin films of alternating maleic acid copolymers with octadecene (POMA) and with propene (PPMA). The results reveal that the interfacial mode of adsorbed FN depends on the predominant interactions and large amounts of FN were tightly bound to POMA by hydrophobic interactions whereas FN adsorbed on PPMA was concluded to attain an unfolded structure allowing for the electrostatic matching of positively charged residues on FN with the maleic acid groups.
