Abstract
Platelet adhesion of oligosachharide modified biomimetic surfactant polymer for non-thrombogenic interface applications was investigated. Low-molecular weight poly(vinyl amine) (PVAm) with well-defined structure and narrow polydispersity was synthesized from poly(N-vinylformamide). Blood was drawn from healthy, aspirin-refraining adult donors into 3.8% sodium citrate anticoagulant in a 9:1 ratio. The number of adhered platelets per mm 2 was found to be significantly lower for surfactant-coated disks compared with uncoated disks in both platelet rich plasma (PRP) and human whole blood (WB).
