Non-thrombogenic plastic materials are prepared by a process which first fluorinates polyolefins or polyesters under conditions which produce both fluoride groups and reactive carboxyl groups and then reacts the carboxyl group on the substrate with plasminokinase enzymes which activate plasminogene...

Zusammenfassung:Non-thrombogenic plastic materials are prepared by a process which first fluorinates polyolefins or polyesters under conditions which produce both fluoride groups and reactive carboxyl groups and then reacts the carboxyl group on the substrate with plasminokinase enzymes which activate plasminogene to plasmin. Such treated plastic materials can be used in devices, coming in direct contact with blood without accelerating clotting, as in membranes for blood dialysis and in other extracorporeal biomedical devices as well as in devices and conduits intended for prosthesis or body implants.
