Functional cellulose substrates with tetrazole moieties are generated to serve as universal platforms for the spatio-temporal immobilization of synthetic ultra-low fouling polymer brushes and protein species via a nitrile imine-mediated tetrazole-ene cycloaddition (NITEC)-based protocol. Poly(carboxybetaine acrylamide) brushes are grafted from initiators photo-patterned by NITEC utilizing single electron transfer living radical polymerization. Streptavidin is photo-immobilized with remarkable efficiency, opening the possibility to generate new materials for biomedical and biosensing applications.
