“…For introduction of amine groups it has thus been found that the use of diaminocyclohexane yields a higher density than heptylamine. 1 In addition to introduction of carboxyl 70,71 and amine 72-74 groups, plasma polymerisation also provides a convenient avenue for the introduction of epoxide 75 and aldehyde 72,76 functionalities. The reader is referred to specific papers given above for a guide to optimal plasma parameters for each monomer considering the required optimisation for each plasma reactor type.…”

“…The surface functionalities that arise as a result of plasma deposition or functionalization can serve as a platform for further surface modification processes, such as the grafting of biomolecules and other functional structures, 61,136 and to tune the properties of the biomaterial for a specific application. 145 Surfaces coated with plasma polymers can be used to bind proteins specifically via covalent linkages, e.g.…”

REVIEW This journal isStrategies that confine antibacterial and/or antifouling property to the surface of the implant, by modifying the surface chemistry and morphology or by encapsulating the material in an antibiotic-loaded coating, are most promising as they do not alter bulk integrity of the material. Among them, plasma-assisted modification and catechol chemistry stand out for their ability to modify a wide range of substrates. By controlling processing parameters, plasma environment can be used for surface nano structuring, chemical activation, and deposition of biologically active and passive coatings. Catechol chemistry can be used for material-independent, highlycontrolled surface immobilisation of active molecules and fabrication of biodegradable drugloaded hydrogel coatings. In this article, we comprehensively review the role plasma-assisted processing and catechol chemistry can play in combating bacterial colonisation on medically relevant coatings, and how these strategies can be coupled with the use of natural antimicrobial agents to produce synthetic antibiotic-free antibacterial surfaces.
