A simple, versatile, protein-repulsive, substrate-independent biomimetic surface modification is presented that is based on the creation of a PEO brush on a polydopamine anchoring layer and its capacity for selective follow-up modifications with various ligands using a copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition reaction. The desired surface concentration of peptide biomimetic ligands can be controlled by adjusting the peptide concentration in the reaction mixture, then measuring the activity of (125)I-radiolabeled peptides that are immobilized on the substrates. The performance of the prepared substrates is tested in cell cultures with MEF cells and a human ECC line.
