Abstract
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), a thermally responsive polymer, was end-grafted to mercaptopropyl derivatives of silica gel, plane glass sheets and glass capillary tubing by free radical polymerization of the monomer in 1,4-dioxane at 100 degrees C. The polymer monolayer attached to the glass carriers provided them with thermally controlled wettability registered by two independent methods: direct measurements of the water contact angle and capillary rise. The water Contact angle changed from 54 +/- 3 degrees to 68 +/- 3 degrees in the temperature range from 20 to 50 degrees C. The polymer grafting to silica gel (pore diameter 100 A, particle size 5 pm) resulted in 15-30-fold reduction in protein adsorption on the carrier at 35 degrees C.... (More)

Cooling of the grafted carrier containing adsorbed myoglobin to 9 degrees C led to a partial release of the protein to the contacting solution, whereas heating of the system to 35 degrees C resulted in reversible binding of the protein. Adsorption of myoglobin on polyNIPAM-coated silica was ca. 2-fold higher at 35 than at 9 degrees C, most probably (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. (Less)
