Abstract
The application is directed to polymer coatings which can be modified to control biointerfacial interactions including biofilm formation and protein adsorption onto said coatings. The polymer coatings comprise a First Component comprising epoxide or alkenyl groups, and a Second Component comprising at least one amine group. The polymer coatings further comprise at least one bioactive agent which may control said biofilm formation and/or protein adsorption. Also disclosed herein are methods for producing said coatings incorporating bioactive molecules in one or two step procedures on a substrate. The polymer coating may be immobilised on the substrate via the reaction of functional groups present on the First Component and/or Second Component with complimentary functional groups disposed on at least one surface of the substrate.
