Surface modification of polycarbonate with synthetic polyelectrolyte-anticoagulant activity

Abstract

Natural rubber with C = C bonds had been modified by reaction with chlorosulfonyl isocyanate (CSI) and 70% of the products were obtained, which yielded polyelectrolyte on treatment with NaOH, having sulfamate and carboxylate groups. The polyelectrolyte showed anticoagulant activity. This might be due to the presence of both sulfamate and carboxylate groups arranged in a steric manner in the molecule as that of Heparin. Surface energy parameters, platelet adhesion and plasma recalcification time were investigated. Possible comparison with heparin had been demonstrated.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
