Mussel-inspired citric acid crosslinked antifouling and bactericidal coatings constructed using sulfobetaine zwitterionic/quaternary ammonium cationic copolymers.

Inhibiting and reducing bacterial infections associated with biomedical implants and devices remains a significant challenge. In this study, we successfully grafted crosslinked antifouling and bactericidal coatings onto a polyurethane (PU) surface us…
