Hydrophilic antifouling coatings based on zwitterionic polymers have been widely applied for the surface modification of bone implants to combat biofilm formation and reduce the likelihood of implant-related infections. However, their long-term effectiveness is significantly limited by the lack of effective and precise antibacterial activity. Here, a pH-responsive smart zwitterionic antibacterial coating (PSB/GS coating) was designed and robustly fabricated onto titanium-base bone implants by using a facile two-step method. First, dopamine (DA) and a poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate-
