Fibrinogen adsorption at heparinized silica interfaces : history dependence and protein concentration effects

Creator:

Joshi, Omkar

Abstract:

Adipic dihydrazide-modified heparin was prepared and subsequently immobilized on surface-activated silica wafers. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to quantify the elemental composition of the silica surface at each stage of activation and results showed that successful immobilization had taken place. Contact angle measurements were made to verify the high...

possible alternative is heparin immobilization on the biomaterial, so that the anticoagulant effect will
