HEPARINIZATION OF PLASMA TREATED SUBSTRATES

摘要

Improved antithrombogenicity results when heparin is attached to a polymeric surface activated by treatment with a plasma. The surface thus activated is rendered receptive to the binding of a surface active agent. The surface active agent in turn reacts with heparin to provide a polymeric surface of exceptional antithrombogenicity when contacted with blood for an extended period of time.
