The protein-resistant polycationic graft polymer, poly(L-lysine)-g-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL-g-PEG), was uniformly adsorbed onto a homogenous titanium surface and subsequently subjected to a direct current (dc) voltage. Under the influence of an ascending cathodic and anodic potential, there was a steady and gradual loss of PLL-g-PEG from the conductive titanium surface while no desorption was observed on the insulating silicon oxide substrates. We have implemented this difference in the electrochemical response of PLL-g-PEG on conductive titanium and insulating silicon oxide regions as a biosensing platform for the controlled surface functionalization of the titanium areas while maintaining a protein-resistant background on the silicon oxide regions. A silicon-based substrate was micropatterned into alternating stripes of conductive titanium and insulating silicon oxide with subsequent PLL-g-PEG adsorption onto its surfaces. The surface modified substrate was then subjected to +1800 mV (referenced to the silver electrode). It was observed that the potentiostatic action removed the PLL-g-PEG from the titanium stripes without inducing any polyelectrolyte loss from the silicon oxide regions. Time-of-flight secondary ions mass spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy qualitatively confirmed the PLL-g-PEG retention on the silicon oxide stripes and its absence on the titanium region. This method, known as "Locally Addressable Electrochemical Patterning Technique" (LAEPT), offers great prospects for biomedical and biosensing applications. In an attempt to elucidate the desorption mechanism of PLL-g-PEG in the presence of an electric field on titanium surface, we have conducted electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments on bare titanium substrates. The results showed that electrochemical transformations occurred within the titanium oxide layer; its impedance and polarization resistance were found to decrease steadily upon both cathodic and anodic polarization resulting in the polyelectrolyte desorption from the titanium surface.
