New biointeracting materials.
This article reports on advances in haemocompatible and antimicrobial coatings. A polymer is described that has nonthrombogenic and antithrombogenic properties on the same polymer backbone, which prevents protein adsorption and inhibits thrombin at the same time. A separate polymer formulation has also been developed that is reportedly biocompatible, lubricious and antimicrobial.
