Previous studies have showed that radio-frequency plasma deposited tetraglyme coatings greatly reduced fibrinogen adsorption (Gamma(Fg)) from highly diluted plasmas (0.1 and 1%) and subsequent platelet adhesion under static conditions. In this study, the protein resistant properties of tetraglyme were re-examined

Nonspecific protein adsorption, particularly fibrinogen (Fg), is thought to be an initiating step in the foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials by promoting phagocyte attachment. In previous studies, we therefore prepared radiofrequency glow discharge (ethylene oxide)-like tetraglyme (CH(3)O(CH(2)CH(2)O)(4)CH(3)) coatings adsorbing
