•A polymeric platform for bioassay was constructed via a photografting strategy.•The platform had a low-bioadhesion property relative to the reference.•The antigen recognition with high throughput and sensitivity was presented.
A polymeric platform for immunodiagnostic bioassay was constructed based on biostable polymeric support and two functional monomers, low-fouling methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and acrylic acid (AAc), by a photografting polymerization approach. Covalent binding of antibody to pAAc chains was achieved by activating carboxyl with NHS/EDC partner. The resultant surface showed obvious suppression of nonspecific protein adsorption and platelet adhesion relative to the control sample, exhibiting good anti-bioadhesion performances. Based on the polymer-supported matrix, a highly sensitive antibody–antigen specific recognition was confirmed in both native plasma and diluted human plasma due to the enhanced antibody loading capacity and lowered bioadhesion as compared to the reference.
