Engineering anti-thrombogenic and anti-infective catheters through a stepwise metal-catechol-(amine) surface engineering strategy by Siyuan Yue, Wentai Zhang, Qing Ma, Zhen Zhang, Jing Lu, Zhilu Yang

“…Subsequently, azide-polyethylene glycol 4-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl and dibenzylcyclooctyne modified ABP were sequentially immobilized on the surface via amide coupling and bioorthogonal click chemistry, ensuring the dense grafting of ABP while maintaining the catalytic efficacy for NO. This efficient integration of ABP and NO-generating ability on the catheter surface provides potent antibacterial properties and ability to resist adhesion and activation of platelets, thus synergistically preventing infection and thrombosis. …”
