Does the liquid method of electret forming influence the adhesion of blood platelets?

This work presents the results of the effect of the electric charge on the adhesion of blood platelets. All experiments were carried out on polyethylene foil. The liquid method was used to form electrets. The evaluation of the electret effect influence on the adhesion of blood platelets was made on the basis of the observation of the electret surface after the contact with fresh citrate human blood group O Rh+ in an electron scanning microscope. Experimental results confirmed the essential influence of the electric charge on the process of adhesion of blood platelets. It was noticed that the preliminary aging of electrets decreases the density of the surface charge and improves the athrombogenic characteristics of polyethylene foil.
