Biocompatible metallic materials grafted with biologically active compounds and preparation thereof

摘要

Disclosed are surface-modified medical metallic materials and preparation thereof. The medical metallic material is prepared by coating a gold or silver thin layer onto a base metal, adsorbing a polyfunctional sulfur compound onto the gold or silver thin layer, and chemically bonding a biologically active material such as heparin or estradiol to the functional group of the sulfur compound. The biologically active material is firmly bonded to the base metal via the sulfur compound. Being significantly improved in antithrombogenicity and biocompatibility, the metallic materials are suitable for use in various implants, including stents, artificial cardiac valves and catheters.
