The great success of controlled radical polymerizations has encouraged researchers to
develop more facile and robust approaches for surface‐initiated polymerizations (SIPs) to …

Conspectus Atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is a well-known technique for the
controlled polymerization of vinyl monomers under mild conditions. However, as with any …

Spatial and temporal regulations of ATRP by external stimuli are presented. Various ATRP
techniques, eATRP, photoATRP, and mechanoATRP, are controlled by electrical current …

The requirement for deoxygenation in controlled/living radical polymerisation (CLRP) places
significant limitations on its widespread implementation by necessitating the use of large …

Abstract Poly (dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS) is likely the most popular material for microfluidic
devices in lab-on-a-chip and other biomedical applications. However, the hydrophobicity of …

Inspired by the rapid progress and existing limitations in surface plasmon resonance (SPR)
biosensing technology, we have summarized the recent trends in the fields of both chip-SPR …

Biomaterials as we know them today had their origins in the late 1940s with off-the-shelf
commercial polymers and metals. The evolution of materials for medical applications from …

A brief and universal ultralow fouling sensing platform capable of assaying targets in
complex biofluids was developed based on designed antifouling peptides that could form a …

This Feature Article focuses on recent advances in the bioconjugation of surface-bound
zwitterionic polymers for biospecific antifouling surfaces. Various approaches for the …

Over the past three decades, the development of reversible deactivation radical
polymerizations (RDRP), and advancements toward more user-friendly and accessible …
