Abstract
The covalent immobilization of molecules on polymer surfaces is intere sting for example in the development of vascular prostheses, where the immobilization of biological molecules is used to improve the biocomp atibility of synthetic materials. Here, TOF-SIMS is used to investigat e the immobilization of amino acids on such surfaces, and the results compared with those from XPS and other methods.
