Abstract:
A tri-block-coupling polymer of stearyl poly(ethylene oxide)-4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate-stearyl poly(ethylene oxide) (MSPEO), was used as a surface modifying additive (SMA) and the MSPEO-modified poly(ether urethane) (PEU) surfaces were prepared by the process of dip-coating. The surface analysis by XPS revealed the surface enrichment of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). On the coating-modified surfaces, the bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption, respectively, from the low and high BSA bulk concentration solutions was correspondingly characterized by the methods of radioactive 125I-probe and ATR-FTIR. The bovine serum fibrinogen (Fg)-adsorption from the Fg bulk solution and the BSA-Fg competing adsorption from the BSA-Fg binary solutions were also characterized by radioactive 125I-probe. The reversible BSA-selective in situ adsorption on MSPEO-modified PEU surfaces were achieved, and the performance of blood compatibility on the coating-modified surfaces was also confirmed, respectively, by plasma recalcification time (PRT) and prothrombin time (PT) tests.
