Abstract

One of the most demanding tests of thromboresistance occurs in studies of implanted small vessel grafts. In such applications microthrombi form and embolize, even when most stringent protective measures are employed. A method which may improve the thromboresistance of such grafts is to provide a dynamically renewable, endogenous albumin coat between the surface of the device and the blood. The albumin layer serves to mask the substrate from blood-borne host defense activation mechanisms. We have developed an alkylation process which takes advantage of the high affinity of serum albumin for 16 and 18 carbon aliphatic chains.
