Our approach to creating these surfaces is via the fabrication of vapor-based reactive polymer coatings, which provide sophisticated functional groups for the immobilization of biological ligands. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) polymerization has been used to prepare a wide spectrum of functionalized poly(p- xylylenes). The applicability of a few of these reactive surfaces as stable platforms for biomimetic modifications is discussed in this review. ? 2008 American Chemical Society.conference paper10.1021/bk-2008-0977.ch0172-s2.0-84905568066https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84905568066&doi=10.1021%2fbk-2008-0977.ch017&partnerID=40&md5=f9e9bd9a1e2c51f5bccab5619d82f23b
