Photocurable and photopatternable hydrogel matrix based on azlactone copolymers

摘要

Photocurable and photopattemable compositions are disclosed which comprise a) at least one copolymer derived from 1 to 99 parts by weight of at least one azlactone-functional monomer and 0 to 99 parts of at least one co-monomer; and b) at least one photocrosslinker. Articles are disclosed comprising a substrate and a gel layer of the cured composition which may be photopatterned with high resolution and used to bind biomolecules to the substrate.
