Surface hemocompatible modification of polysulfone membrane via covalently grafting acrylic acid and sulfonated hydroxypropyl chitosan

In this study, acrylic acid (AA) and sulfonated hydroxypropyl chitosan (SHPCS) were covalently grafted on the PSf membrane surface to improve its hemocompatibility. First, the modified AA-PSf membrane was obtained through the Friedel-Craft reaction between acrylic acid and the PSf membrane surface....

Description
Summary:In this study, acrylic acid (AA) and sulfonated hydroxypropyl chitosan (SHPCS) were covalently grafted on the PSf membrane surface to improve its hemocompatibility. First, the modified AA-PSf membrane was obtained through the Friedel-Craft reaction between acrylic acid and the PSf membrane surface. Then, the modified SHPCS-AA-PSf membrane was prepared by grafting SHPCS onto the AA-PSf membrane surface via the dehydration acylation of the carboxyl group of the AA-PSf membrane with the amino group of SHPCS. ATR-FTIR and XPS measurements confirmed that the -COOH group and SHPCS were successfully grafted onto the surface of the PSf membrane. The modified PSf membranes showed suppressed platelet adhesion and lower protein adsorption (161 μg cm −2 ) compared with the pristine PSf membrane (341 μg cm −2 ). Hemocompatibility testing showed that modified membrane materials had a prolonged clotting time, plasma recalcification time (PRT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), and prothrombin time (PT). All of these results indicated that the surface modification of the PSf membrane with acrylic acid and SHPCS had good hemocompatibility and anticoagulant property. In this study, acrylic acid (AA) and sulfonated hydroxypropyl chitosan (SHPCS) were covalently grafted on the PSf membrane surface to improve its hemocompatibility.
