Identification and characterization of a wet adhesive protein extracted from Dreissena bugensis, the freshwater quagga mussel

This paper identifies and characterizes a DOPA-deficient wet adhesive protein from quagga mussels, showing it has similar adhesion properties to marine mussel proteins despite lacking DOPA.

Surface-immobilized fibronectin conformation influences synovial fluid adsorption and film formation

This study investigates how fibronectin conformation affects synovial fluid adsorption and film formation on surfaces, showing that pH-induced conformational changes alter film properties and fluid retention.

All-Atom Modeling and Simulation of Biopolymer Interface: Dual Role of Antifouling Polymer Brushes

This study uses molecular modeling and simulation to analyze how different antifouling polymer brushes resist or modulate protein adsorption and structural dynamics.

Thioether-functionalized cellulose for the fabrication of oxidation-responsive biomaterial coatings and films

This paper develops HECMTP, an oxidation-responsive biomaterial that improves coating performance for medical devices by reducing fouling and delamination.
