Abstract
Two-dimensional mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) nano-sheets are prepared and exploited as a functional surface for grafting various polymer brushes by R. Jordan, I. Amin, and co-workers, as described on page 1489. The PDA nanosheet and its polymer-brush derivatives show lateral integrity and are robust; therefore, they can be detached from their substrates. Cell-adhesion tests show that the PDA nanosheet promotes cell attachment and growth, while a PDA-based poly(3-sulfopropyl methacrylate) carpet exhibits non-fouling behavior.
