Biofouling is a significant challenge when designing materials for biomedical applications, as protein and cell adsorption can hinder medical device function and induce unwanted immune responses. Poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (pOEGMA) and zwitterionic-based materials are non-antigenic and have been used in the field for their tunable mechanics and high antifouling capabilities, respectively.
Sunlight-driven chemical transformations represent a sustainable route to mitigate waste streams and produce value-added chemicals.1 For example, the greenhouse gas CO2 can be converted to valuable fuels or chemical feedstocks in the presence of a suitable semiconductor.2, 3 The photocatalyst absorbs light to generate photo-excited electrons that perform a reduction reaction such as CO2 conversion to CO or formate (HCOO−).4-6 The holes remaining in the semiconductor regenerate through...
