    Area of Science:

    • Biomaterials Science
    • Polymer Chemistry
    • Medical Device Coatings

    Background:

    • Thrombosis remains a significant challenge in medical devices.
    • Development of effective antithrombogenic surfaces is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
    • Existing antithrombogenic materials often face limitations in long-term efficacy or biocompatibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To synthesize and characterize a novel antithrombogenic polymer.
    • To evaluate the relationship between polymer composition, properties, and antithrombotic performance.
    • To establish methods for predicting antithrombogenic efficacy.

    Main Methods:

    • Photoinduced graft copolymerization of hydrophilic and cationic polymers onto poly(vinyl chloride) copolymer.
    • Quaternization and subsequent heparinization of the graft copolymer.
    • Characterization of chemical composition, water absorption, membrane potential, and heparin adsorption.
    • In vivo evaluation of antithrombogenicity.

    Main Results:

    • A novel antithrombogenic polymer was successfully synthesized.
    • Polymers with excellent antithrombogenicity demonstrated a negative membrane potential.
    • Optimal antithrombotic performance was associated with approximately 15 wt% heparin adsorption and 30 wt% water adsorption.
    • Membrane potential measurement proved effective for estimating heparin quantity and its temporal changes.

    Conclusions:

    • The synthesized graft copolymer exhibits promising antithrombogenic properties.
    • Membrane potential serves as a valuable indicator for assessing heparin loading and elution.
    • This approach offers a new strategy for developing advanced antithrombotic biomaterials.
