Abstract

The preparation of hydrophobic polymer films (polyurethane and poly(vinyl chloride)) containing nitric oxide (NO)-releasing diazeniumdiolate functions is reported as a basis for improving the thromboresistivity of such polymeric materials for biomedical applications. Several different approaches for preparing NO-releasing polymer films are presented, including: (1) dispersion of diazeniumdiolate molecules within the polymer matrix; (2) covalent attachment of the diazeniumdiolate to the polymer backbone; and (3) ion-pairing of a diazeniumdiolated heparin species to form an organic soluble complex that can be blended into the polymer. Each approach is characterized in terms of NO release rates and in vitro biocompatibility. Results presented indicate that the polymer films prepared by each approach release NO for variable periods of time (10-72 h), although they differ in the mechanism, location and amount of NO released. In vitro platelet adhesion studies demonstrate that the localized NO release may prove to be an effective strategy for improving blood compatibility of polymer materials for a wide range of medical devices.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
