The invention relates provides synthetic medical adhesives which exploit plant derivatives to form covalent bonds with amines and thiols on tissue surfaces.

Mono-layer thin film adhesive compounds and methods of synthesis and use

Patterned SAM arrays and methods of preparing patterned SAM arrays are disclosed. Advantageously, the methods used to prepare the patterned SAM arrays allow for controlling SAM spot-to-spot conditions such as ligand identity and ligand density, which allows for preparing a wide range of SAM spots in a single array format. Additionally, the patterned SAM arrays of the present disclosure support the culture of a range of cell types. The patterned SAM arrays offer the ability to rapidly screen substrate components for influencing cell attachment, spreading, proliferation, migration, and differentiation.
