A Cu-free clickable polymer was synthesized and used to dip-coat plastic substrates to prepare Cu-free clickable surfaces. The surface density of dibenzocyclooctyne moieties was quantified using an azide-conjugated fluorophore and a conventional fluorometer, indicating that the clickable moieties displayed on a dip-coated surface were accessible from solutes in water. The present approach also succeeded in the control of the surface density of the clickable moieties.Azide-conjugated oligo DNA was immobilized on the surface using a Cu-free click reaction.
In the original published version of Fig. 1, the chemical structures of PFEA8 contained-(CH 2) 7in the side chains of PMFP and poly(MMA-r-PFEA8). They have now been corrected to-(CF 2) 7-. The corrected Fig. 1 is as shown below.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
