Abstract
With the development of tissue engineering, the required biomaterials need to have the ability to promote cell adhesion and proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Especially, surface modification of the scaffold material has a great influence on biocompatibility and functionality of materials. The small intestine submucosa (SIS) is an extracellular matrix isolated from the submucosal layer of porcine jejunum, which has good tissue mechanical properties and regenerative activity, and is suitable for cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. In recent years, SIS is widely used in different areas of tissue reconstruction, such as blood vessels, bone, cartilage, bladder and ureter, etc. This paper discusses the main methods for surface modification of SIS to improve and optimize the performance of SIS bioscaffolds, including functional group bonding, protein adsorption, mineral coating, topography and formatting modification and drug combination. In addition, the reasonable combination of these methods also offers great improvement on SIS surface modification. This article makes a shallow review of the surface modification of SIS and its application in tissue engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the small intestinal submucosal (SIS) surface after heparinization with the hypothermia plasma technique, to improve the blood compatibility of SIS, and to explore the possibility of construction of small-caliber vascular grafts with modified SIS scaffolds in vivo. METHODS SIS films prepared from jejunums of pigs were processed for surface treatment at different time periods with the argon plasma initiation technique under vacuum, and were then immediately immersed in 4% (m/v) heparin sodium solution for 24-h heparinization. The surface morphologies of heparinized SIS were observed under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The antithrombogenicity of the modified SIS films was tested by measuring the water contact angle, blood coagulation time, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), and observation of platelet adherence by SEM. Heparinized SIS films were sewn into a small caliber (3-mm) tube and implanted into the defect of a canine femur by anastomosis as a vascular graft. The efficiency of the SIS graft was evaluated according to the patency for the circulation of blood with Doppler color ultrasonography and hematoxylin-eosin staining. RESULTS Heparinized SIS showed a significantly different surface morphology compared with that of untreated SIS. The SIS surface resembles wrinkled film, but the heparinized SIS surface is uniformly coated with microdots, and appears to have a layer of heparin adhesion. CONCLUSION Heparin was attached to the SIS surface after hypothermia plasma treatment. Hydrophilicity and antithrombogenicity of heparinized SIS were clearly increased. The heparinized SIS vascular graft showed great potential for replacement of defective small-caliber vessels.

Abstract
A series of pH-sensitive vinyl (co)polymers was synthesised to investigate whether the buffering capacity is a crucial factor in determining the transfection efficiency of synthetic vectors in gene therapy. The polymers containing side groups with different pKa were prepared by radical polymerization. All cationic polymers were able to condense DNA, yielding rather small and homogeneous particles, as determined by dynamic light scattering. The effect of pH, temperature and serum albumin on complex formation was also investigated. The results from the titration studies showed that copolymers of (2-dimethylaminoethyl) methacrylate and 4-methyl-5-imidazoyl methyl methacrylate or methacrylic acid have a buffering effect over a broader pH range compared to poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate). Introduction of N-(2-hydroxyethyl) nicotinamide methacrylate had no significant effect on the buffering range.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a novel natural-synthetic hybrid material based on cellulose is reported. The reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) process was used to graft poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) onto a cellulosic substrate. The weight ratio was increased with an increase in monomer concentration, polymerization time and degree of polymerization (DP). We found that the addition of free chain-transfer agent has a pronounced effect on the weight ratio, chain length of grafted polymer, monomer conversion and homopolymer formation in solution. The cellulose-graft-poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) copolymers were characterized by gravimetry, elemental analysis, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermal analysis and atomic force microscopy. The dithioester end-group present at the chain end of PDMAEMA was removed via aminolysis. The livingness of the process was utilized to block-copolymerize styrene from the grafted PDMAEMA chains. The hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the novel cellulose-g-(PDMAEMA-b-polystyrene) material were illustrated by contact-angle measurements.

Abstract
Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB)-based polyurethane with dimethyol propionic acid (DPA) as chain extender was synthesized by solution polymerization. The HTPB-based polyurethane was modified by UV radiation with N-isopropyl acrylamide monomer to get poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)-modified polyurethane (PUDPANIPAAm). The cohesive energy (E(coh)), molar volume (V), solubility parameter (delta), molecular weight (W(M)), volume per gram (V(g)), and the density (1/V(g)) of PUDPANIPAAm were calculated by group contribution methods. To evaluate the application of PUDPANIPAAm for wound dressing and transplantation of cell sheet, the measurement of water content, water vapor transmission rate, and gas permeation on the PUDPANIPAAm membrane was evaluated. The biocompatibility of these membranes, cell adhesion, and proliferation assay were conducted in the cell culture. The effect of thermosensitivity of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) on cell detachment was also evaluated in the primary study. The results showed that these PUDPANIPAAm membranes are thermosensitive. The modification of PU with poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) reduced the water vapor transmission rate and permeability of gas through PUDPANIPAAm membrane. PUDPANIPAAm membranes could support cell adhesion and growth. Owing to the thermosensitive nature of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide), the relative cell numbers detached from PUDPANIPAAm membranes were larger than those detached from the polystyrene dish.

Abstract
This work reports the development of new non-thrombogenic polymers based on the linear polymers of polyamidoamines (PAAs), having heparin binding ability, obtained by polyaddition of secondary amines to N,N'-methylene bis-acrylamide. PAAs could not be used directly in the making of blood-contacting materials due to their poor mechanical strength. In order to overcome this lacuna, copolymers of amidoamine with methylmethacrylate (MMA) were prepared. Characterization studies indicated that the PAAs have been suitably incorporated into the MMA matrix. The relative hydrophilic nature of the synthesized copolymers was established from the measurement of water contact angle. The heparinized copolymers showed significant improvement in non-thrombogenic characteristics.

Abstract
Exposure to gamma ray irradiation is a frequent, clean, and superior method used to prevent bacterial contamination of sterilized biomedical end products. However, the potential damage induced by gamma ray irradiation of collagen is of concern because of the decay of bioactivity, which correlates with considerable structural alterations. In this experiment, antenna-coupling microwave plasma was utilized to activate nonwoven polypropylene (PP) fabric, and then the sample was grafted to acrylic acid (AAc). Type III collagen was immobilized by using water-soluble 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide as a coupling agent. The collagen-immobilized samples, with temperatures of under 4 degrees C, were exposed to gamma ray irradiation at different dose intervals. Gamma ray irradiation was applied to evaluate the bioactivity on the collagen-immobilized nonwoven polypropylene and to determine the results of sterilization. Five kinds of sterilization index bacteria, all subject to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) criteria, were applied as a standard plate-count sterilization test. Our experimental results demonstrate that in human plasma incubated with various intervals of gamma ray irradiation, fibrinogen concentration decreases while platelet and red blood cell adhesion increase. However, the dose required for thrombination demonstrated a significant change in gamma ray irradiation exposure of fewer than 10 KGy (p = 0.05). The decay of bioactivity of the gamma-ray-irradiated collagen-bonded surfaces was evaluated and indicated that the decrease of R-CONHR', the degradation of amides ([broken bond]C[bond]N bonds of collagen and formation of the ROCNH(2) and O[double bond]CR' bonds), and the increase of C[bond]O, C[double bond]O bonds gradually may damage collagen by increasing the intervals of gamma ray irradiation. These effects considerably influence the bioactivity of the collagen-bonded fabric. It is clear that gamma ray irradiation exposure of approximately 10 KGy has the potential of moderating the bioactivities of collagen and therefore likely is a vital factor in the acceleration of biodegradation. The dose required for thrombination and sterilization reaches significance at 7.5 KGy.

Abstract
Antenna coupling microwave plasma enables a highly oxidative treatment of the outmost surface of polypropylene (PP) nonwoven fabric within a short time period. Subsequently, grafting copolymerization with acrylic acid (AAc) makes the plasma-treated fabric durably hydrophilic and excellent in water absorbency. With high grafting density and strong water affinity, the pAAc-grafted support greatly becomes feasible as an intensive absorbent and as a support to promote heparin immobilization through amide bonds. For heparin immobilized in acidic condition, the carbonate groups of the molecule tend to dissolve and passive encapsulation of the molecule prevents its functional groups from bonding with the carboxylic acid of pAAc. This effect leads to inhibit the immobilization process and consequently reduces the quantity as well as the bioactivity of the immobilized heparin. In alkaline processing environment, the oxidized uronic acid residues in heparin-related glycans are presumably cleaved and the removal of some oxidized residuals before immobilization process is likely to reduce the chain length of heparin. In the latter case, anticoagulant Factors X and XII, but not thrombin, are unaffected. Anticoagulant activity test using activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is more sensitive in assessing heparin-immobilized surfaces, since it corresponds to Factor X and initiates the inhibition of Factor XII and thrombin. Likewise, platelets adhesion on the surfaces decreases as the process shifted from acidic to alkaline condition, whereas the hydrophilic character of the grafted pAAc markedly contributes to extend physical insertion of platelets. The immobilized heparin has a great part of original bioactivity, depending on the pH of the processing environment and the immobilized quantity. Relative bioactivity based upon aPTT tests is partially held longer than 90 days for the sample prepared in the alkaline or neutral environment.

Abstract
Covalent immobilization of heparin has been developed to reduce the amount of heparin administered systematically during long-term dialysis. Recently, it was doubted partially because of the complexion during immobilization process. In this study, we investigated a novel method for specific immobilization of heparin on polysulfone (PSF) via free electron laser (FEL) irradiation. Laser wavelengths of 6.18 or 6.31 microm, the typical absorption bands of carboxyl groups of heparin and aromatic rings in PSF, respectively, were chosen to irradiate the thin heparin membrane formed on PSF surfaces. The amount of heparin immobilized on PSF was measured by the toluidine blue method. The binding of heparin on PSF was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The immobilization of heparin resulted in a hydrophilic surface on which decreased platelet adhesion was observed. The efficiency differences, depending on laser wavelengths, were discussed from the point of view of structural and environmental differences of light-absorbing groups.

Abstract
Blood compatibility of polyamides has been improved by introducing amido-amine groups in polymer backbone. Polyamide block-copolymer are synthesized by reacting amine end-capped polyamides with N,N'-methylene-bisacrylamide. Polyamide block-copolymers, thus produced found to have the ability of absorbing heparin. Heparinized polyamide block-copolymers have shown significant improvement in blood compatibility as evident from thrombus formation and hemolysis studies.

Abstract
Poly(acrylic acid) modified polyurethane (AA/PU) membranes were prepared by UV radiation without degassing. The chemical composition of the AA/PU membrane was studied by IR spectroscopy. In addition to those absorption peaks associated with pure PU, the absorption peak at 2400 cm-1 of poly(AA) was also found. The morphology of AA/PU membrane was studied by optical polarizing microscopy. We also measured the glass transition temperature and the decomposition temperature of the AA/PU membrane by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. A significant domain was found in the AA/PU membrane, which resulted in different glass transition temperature and decomposition temperature between AA/PU and pure PU membrane. The effect of AA content on the contact angle and water absorption of the AA/PU membrane was determined. It was found that the water content of AA/PU membrane increased with increasing AA content, whereas the contact angle decreased. By using Kaeble's equation and the contact angle data, the surface free energy of AA/PU membrane was determined. The increase of surface free energy resulted from the increase of the dispersion (gammad) term and polar (gammap) term. In order to evaluate the biocompatibility of these membranes, a cytotoxicity test and a cell adhesion and proliferation assay were conducted in cell culture. Immortal cells and primary lymphocytes were both used in this study. The results showed that these AA/PU membranes exhibited very low cytotoxicity and could support cell adhesion and growth. An animal primary test was also done in this study. It was found that the AA/PU membrane could possibly be employed in the treatment of bowel defect.
