Poly(r-benzyl L-glutamate)/ poly(ethylene glycol) block 공중합체 표면의 항혈전성에 관한 연구

Antithrombogenicity of the Surfacfe of Poly(r-benzyl L-glutamate)/ Poly(ethylene glycol) Block Copolymer

ABA type block copolymers composed of r benzyle L-glutamate as the A component and poly(ethylene glycol) as the B components were obtained. Platelet adhesion on their sunfaces was investigated by a column elusion method to examine the effects of microdomain and secondary structure. The number of platelets adhered from whole blood and plasma rich platelet was smaller for the block copolymer systems than for the homopolymers. In the block copolymer system, the number of platelets adrered on their surfaces increased with increasing the content of PEG, that is, with decreasing of a-helix of block copolymers. A thick thrombus formation on the PBLG homopolymer was observed than block copolymer by scanning electron micrographs. The platelets adhesion increased with increasing the critical surface tension of the block copolymer.
