Abstract: |
|
2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) was copolymerized with butyl methacrylate (BMA) and 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate (EHMA), respectively, using 2, 2’-azodiisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator, in order to research the biocompatibility of the phosphorylcholine polymers. The chemical structures of the polymers were characterized by the IR, 1H-NMR and elemental analyses. The solubility of the polymers in different solvents was also investigated, which provided the evidence for the purification of these polymers. Polymer membranes were prepared by solvent evaporation method. The platelet rich plasma (PRP) contact studies showed that the adhesion of platelets on the surfaces of MPC polymer membranes was reduced compared to the polymers without MPC unit, which showed good blood compatibility. The equilibrium water content (EWC) of the MPC polymer membranes increased with increases in the MPC mole fraction, and this value for PMB20 polymer membrane (MPC mole fraction: 18%) reached 47%. The high water content of phosphorylcholine polymers is one of the reasons for the good biocompatibility of the membranes. |
