Abstract
Cellulose acetate membranes exhibit a potential to be applied in hemodialysis. However, their performance is limited by membrane fouling and a lack of antibacterial properties. In this research, copper oxide (I) nanoparticles were fabricated in situ into a cellulose acetate matrix in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone (pore-forming agent) and sulfobetaine (stabilising agent) to reduce the leakage of copper ions from nano-enhanced membranes. The influence of nanoparticles on the membrane structure and their antibacterial and antifouling properties were investigated. The results showed that incorporating Cu2O NPs imparted significant antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and fouling resistance under physiological conditions. The Cu2O NPs-modified membrane could pave the way for potential dialysis applications.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Understanding the attachment and detachment of microparticles and living cells to surfaces is crucial for developing antifouling strategies. Hydrogel coatings have shown promise in reducing fouling and particle adhesion due to their softness and high water content, yet the mechanisms involved are dynamic and complex, and relevant parameters are not easily accessible. AFM-based force spectroscopy (FS) experiments with colloidal probe particles is a direct way of evaluating adhesive and mechanical relaxational dynamics, yet their interpretation and modeling has been challenging. The present study proposes and examines several dynamic models, suitable for quantitative analysis of FS results with model probe particle on hydrogels surfaces. EXPERIMENTS FS were performed using polyethylene glycol (PEG) hydrogels and polystyrene microspheres including particle attachement to the hydrogel surface (loading), holding the particle on the surface with a constant force for variable times (dwell) and pulling the particle away from the surface (unloading) FINDINGS: It was found that a viscoelastic extension of the classical JKR model with energy of adhesion unevenly distributed over the contact area and vanishing at its circumferences accurately described all FS experiments and yielded physically consistent viscoelastic and adhesive dynamic parameters, steadily changing with dwell time and applied force. The observed time evolution and force dependence were rationalized as combination of osmotic and osmo-mechnical relaxation in the contact region.

Abstract
In clinical practice, high-effective antithrombosis remains a challenge for blood-contacting medical devices. Inspired by the enhanced antithrombogenicity of anticoagulant and antiplatelet combination therapy, a strategy is proposed to synthesize dual-pathway antithrombotic polymers by incorporating anticoagulant and antiplatelet dual functional groups into a single thermosetting polymer chain. The synthesized polymer shows increased antithrombogenicity in vitro, with prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and decreased platelet adhesion. Additionally, it downregulates the expression of coagulation- and inflammation-related factors in rabbit plasma after ex vivo arteriovenous shunt assay and maintains patency of small vascular grafts for at least 6 months without thrombosis on the luminal surface after in vivo replacement of rabbit carotid artery. This work provides a new approach to producing novel antithrombotic polymers for blood-contacting medical devices.

Abstract
In this study, a series of novel hydrophobic/hydrophilic hybrid (HHH) coatings with the feature of preventing the fouling phenomenon was fabricated based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), as matrix and two hydrophilic polymers: chitosan and sodium polyacrylate, as dispersed phases. Antibacterial activity, pseudo-barnacle adhesion strength, surface free energy, water contact angle, and water absorption were performed for all samples. Evaluating field immersion of the samples was performed in the natural seawater. The results showed that the dispersed phase containing PDMS coatings showed simultaneously both of antibacterial activity and foul release behavior. Among the samples, the PCs4 coating containing 4 wt% Cs indicated the lowest pseudo barnacle adhesion strength (0.04 MPa), the lowest surface free energy (18.94 mN/m), the highest water contact angle (116.05°), and the percentage of fouling organisms 9.8 % after 30 days immersion. The HHH coatings can be considered as novel eco-friendly antifouling/foul release coatings for aquaculture applications.

Hemocompatibility challenge of membrane oxygenator for artificial lung technology. Acta Biomater 2022; 152:19-46. [PMID: 36089235 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.09.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 09/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The artificial lung (AL) technology is one of the membrane-based artificial organs that partly augments lung functions, i.e. blood oxygenation and CO2 removal. It is generally employed as an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device to treat acute and chronic lung-failure patients, and the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has re-emphasized the importance of this technology. The principal component in AL is the polymeric membrane oxygenator that facilitates the O2/CO2 exchange with the blood. Despite the considerable improvement in anti-thrombogenic biomaterials in other applications (e.g., stents), AL research has not advanced at the same rate. This is partly because AL research requires interdisciplinary knowledge in biomaterials and membrane technology. Some of the promising biomaterials with reasonable hemocompatibility - such as emerging fluoropolymers of extremely low surface energy - must first be fabricated into membranes to exhibit effective gas exchange performance. As AL membranes must also demonstrate high hemocompatibility in tandem, it is essential to test the membranes using in-vitro hemocompatibility experiments before in-vivo test. Hence, it is vital to have a reliable in-vitro experimental protocol that can be reasonably correlated with the in-vivo results. However, current in-vitro AL studies are unsystematic to allow a consistent comparison with in-vivo results. More specifically, current literature on AL biomaterial in-vitro hemocompatibility data are not quantitatively comparable due to the use of unstandardized and unreliable protocols. Such a wide gap has been the main bottleneck in the improvement of AL research, preventing promising biomaterials from reaching clinical trials. This review summarizes the current state-of-the-art and status of AL technology from membrane researcher perspectives. Particularly, most of the reported in-vitro experiments to assess AL membrane hemocompatibility are compiled and critically compared to suggest the most reliable method suitable for AL biomaterial research. Also, a brief review of current approaches to improve AL hemocompatibility is summarized. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The importance of Artificial Lung (AL) technology has been re-emphasized in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. The utmost bottleneck in the current AL technology is the poor hemocompatibility of the polymer membrane used for O2/CO2 gas exchange, limiting its use in the long-term. Unfortunately, most of the in-vitro AL experiments are unsystematic, irreproducible, and unreliable. There are no standardized in-vitro hemocompatibility characterization protocols for quantitative comparison between AL biomaterials. In this review, we tackled this bottleneck by compiling the scattered in-vitro data and suggesting the most suitable experimental protocol to obtain reliable and comparable hemocompatibility results. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review paper focusing on the hemocompatibility challenge of AL technology.

Abstract
The increasing demand for higher-quality medical care has resulted in the obsolescence of traditional biomaterials. Medical care is currently transitioning from an era depending on single-functional biomaterials to one that is supported by multifunctional and stable biomaterials. Herein, long-lasting multifunctional poly(ether sulfone) thin films (MPFs) containing heparin-mimic groups and a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) were prepared via semi-interpenetrating polymer network (SIPN) strategy. The MPFs, with rough surface and inner finger-like macrovoid, had better hydrophilicity and anti-protein fouling ability, as revealed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and water contact angle (WCA) and protein adsorption tests. The results of platelet adhesion and activation, and clotting time confirmed that the hemocompatibility of the MPFs was significantly improved. From cell culture and germ-culture test, it was noted that the overall trend of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation was enhanced by a combination of heparin-mimic groups and QAC, whereas the growth of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was significantly prohibited. In addition, the MPFs were capable of modulating the expression level of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) in fibroblast, which was beneficial to controlling the formation of hypertrophic scar. In summary, the MPFs had potential to be used in the field of wound management and the study might help guide the design of surface structure of wound dressing.

Abstract
Protein adsorption at the surface affects the material biocompatibility directly as it is the first reaction that happens when a foreign material comes in contact with blood. In this study, the mechanism of albumin adsorption on hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces is investigated. Although it is studied extensively and has been of keen interest for decades, the adsorptive nature of albumin is still not fully understood with contradicting reported studies. This problem results from previous works focusing on mostly qualitative and quantitative adsorption properties of albumin, rather than the specific interaction mechanisms. The variable local surface properties across albumin can significantly impact adsorption and must be explored. In this work, the effect of hydration is found to significantly increase adsorption with minor reductions. The adsorption of albumin on hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces is dependent on albumin orientation, which is dictated by local charge effects. Based on these findings, an optimized material surface is proposed to minimize albumin adsorption using functional groups to limit surface availability for hydrophobic interactions while inhibiting excess electrostatic effects at hydrophilic sites. The extent of albumin adsorption and shape change are characterized herein using the heat capacity. Current study identifies interaction mechanisms previously missing in literature, which are responsible for inconsistent adsorption results.

Abstract
Blood compatibility is an eternal topic of biomedical materials. The effect of heparin-mimicking polymers (HMPs) on blood compatibility has been well studied, especially the synergistic effect of sugar unit and sulfonate/sulfate unit. However, carboxylic groups also play an important role in HMPs. In this work, copolymers of sodium 4-vinyl-benzenesulfonate (SS) and 2-methacrylamido glucopyranose (MAG) (poly(SS-co-MAG)) and poly(acrylate acid) (PAA) were self-assembled on Au surfaces with different feed ratios. When self-assembly of poly(SS-co-MAG) alone, the optimized feed ratio of SS and MAG for vascular cell selectivity was 1:1 (PS1M1); at this ratio the Au-PS1M1 surface showed the highest human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) density and the lowest human umbilical vein smooth muscle cells (HUVSMCs) density. When self-assembly of PAA alone (surface designated as Au-PAA), the proliferation of both HUVECs and HUVSMCs was inhibited. Compared with either PS1M1 or PAA alone, the surfaces modified with both PAA and PS1M1 at the feed ratio of 1:1 (material designated as Au-PSM/PAA-2) showed enhanced promoting effect on HUVECs as well as enhanced inhibiting effect on HUVSMCs, indicating stronger vascular cell selectivity of carboxylic groups in the presence of sugar and sulfonate units.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease are at high risk of hyperkalemia that is associated with various life-threatening complications. Treatments primarily rely on orally administered potassium binding agents, along with low curative effects and various side effects. Herein, direct serum potassium uptake was realized via zeolite–heparin-mimicking-polymer hybrid microbeads. The preparation process involved the synthesis of the heparin-mimicking polymer via the in situ cross-linking polymerization of acrylic acid and N-vinylpyrrolidone in polyethersulfone solution, the fabrication of microbeads via zeolite-mixing, electro-spraying and phase-inversion, and the subsequent aqueous-phase modifications based on ion-exchange and metal-leaching. An ultra-high (about 88%) amount of zeolite could be incorporated and well locked inside the polymer matrix. Potassium uptake capability was verified in water, normal saline and human serum, showing high selectivity and fast adsorption. The microbeads exhibited satisfying blood compatibility, negligible hemolysis ratio, prolonged clotting time, inhibited contact activation, and enhanced antifouling property toward serum proteins and cells. The proposed approach toward zeolite–heparin-mimicking-polymer hybrid microbeads provided a cheap, efficient and safe treatment protocol of hyperkalemia for the high-risk patients. Zeolite–heparin-mimicking-polymer hybrid microbeads were prepared for potassium uptake. An ultra-high (~88%) amount of zeolite could be well locked inside the polymer matrix. Potassium uptake by microbeads exhibited high selectivity and fast adsorption. The microbeads exhibited excellent blood compatibility. The proposed method is cheap, efficient and safe to treat hyperkalemia.

Abstract
Poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) has been the most commonly used polymer for making bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS). Despite owning remarkable properties, BVS made from PLLA are facing higher rates of early thrombosis compared with permanent metallic scaffolds. To solve this issue, we modified the PLLA film surface with heparin-mimetic polysaccharide multilayers consisting of sulfated Chinese yam polysaccharide (SCYP) and chitosan (CS) through layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly. The surface chemical compositions, morphologies and growth manner of SCYP/CS multilayers were investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. The relevant hemocompatibility results showed that multilayer-modified PLLA could effectively resist protein adsorption, suppress the platelet adhesion, prolong clotting time, prevent contact and complement activation as well as reduce hemolysis rate. Moreover, the multilayer-modified PLLA exhibited non-cytotoxicity, good antibacterial ability against E. coli and S. aureus, and drug loading/sustained releasing behavior. Overall, the multifunctional PLLA film with integrated properties of hemocompatibility, non-cytotoxicity, antibacterial and drug loading/releasing behavior could be successfully achieved by deposition of SCYP/CS multilayers, which will have potential application in blood-contacting biomedical materials.

Abstract
Continuous blood purification technology such as hemodiafiltration has been used worldwide for saving patients suffering from severe diseases or organ function failure, especially in the intensive care unit and emergency setting. The filters as core devices are commonly made of polymer materials as hollow fiber membranes. However, the membrane is often inductively blocked by blood clot formation due to its interactions with blood components. Heparin is the anticoagulant often used in clinical practice for anti-coagulation. Recently, heparin is also employed to modify the hollow fiber membranes either chemically or physically to improve the filtration performance. This review summarizes recent advances in methodology for surface heparinization of such hollow fiber membranes, and their filtration performance improvement. The review also provides expert opinions for further research in this rapidly expanding field.

Abstract
Polysulfone (PSf) membrane is widely employed in blood purification fields, but the blood compatibility of PSf membrane is not adequate. To improve the hemocompatibility of PSf membrane, 4-(chloromethyl)benzoic acid (CMBA) and sulfonated hydroxypropyl chitosan (SHPCS) were grafted onto PSf membrane surface. In our strategy, CMBA was firstly grafted on the PSf membrane surface through the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction, and the product was named BAPSf membrane. Then, SHPCS was grafted onto the BAPSf membrane surface by esterification, and the product was named SHPCS-BAPSf membrane. The effects of temperature and reaction time on the productivity of BAPSf and the grafting density of carboxyl and the effects of reaction time on the grafting density of SHPCS grafted onto the BAPSf membrane surface were studied. The SHPCS-BAPSf membranes are investigated by ATR-FTIR, XPS, contact angle measurements and evaluated by blood compatibility in vitro. The results reveal that the hydrophilicity of SHPCS-BAPSf membranes were grealy improved and the evaluation of protein adsorption, hemolysis test, platelet adhesion plasma recalcification time(PRT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), prothrombin time(PT) and thrombin time(TT) confirmed that the SHPCS-BAPSf membranes have remarkable blood compatibility.

Abstract
This work shows the ability to reversibly modulate the hydrophilicity of the hydrogels doped with iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) in a noninvasive way when exposed to a cyclic variation of the intensity (ON/OFF) of an external magnetic field. A reversible switching of surface contact angles was observed for magnetic PVA hydrogels when exposed to consecutive variation of the magnetic field intensity between 0 and 0.08 T. Motivated by the magnetic dependence of the hydrophilicity of these hybrid hydrogels, the impact of the magnetic field on protein sorption was also evaluated. The noninvasive regulation of protein sorption-released mechanisms was achieved by ON/OFF magnetic field switches, suggesting the possible influence of magnetic-induced hydrogel shrinking effect and changes of surface wettability on protein sorption. The capacity to magnetically modulate surface wettability and protein sorption make these magnetic hydrogels promising candidates for development of functional devices for tissue engineering, drug release applications, or biosensor systems, where the control of protein sorption and mobility are essential steps to improve the efficiency of these processes.

Abstract
Clot and thrombus formation on surfaces that come into contact with blood is still the most serious problem for blood contacting devices. Despite many years of continuous efforts in developing hemocompatible materials, it is still of great interest to develop multifunctional materials to enable vascular cell selectivity (to favor rapid endothelialization while inhibiting smooth muscle cell proliferation) and improve hemocompatibility. In addition, biomaterial-associated infections also cause the failure of biomedical implants and devices. However, it remains a challenging task to design materials that are multifunctional, since one of their functions will usually be compromised by the introduction of another function. In the present work, the gold substrate was first layer-by-layer (LbL) deposited with a multilayered polyelectrolyte film containing chitosan (positively charged) and a copolymer of sodium 4-vinylbenzenesulfonate (SS) and the "guest" adamantane monomer 1-adamantan-1-ylmethyl methacrylate (P(SS-co-Ada), negatively charged) via electro-static interactions, referred to as Au-LbL. The chitosan and P(SS-co-Ada) were intended to provide, respectively, resistance to bacteria and heparin-like properties. Then, "host" β-cyclodextrin derivatives bearing seven lysine ligands (CD-L) were immobilized on the Au-LbL surface by host-guest interactions between adamantane residues and CD-L, referred to as Au-LbL/CD-L. Finally, a versatile surface coating with fibrinolytic activity (lysis of nascent clots), vascular cell selectivity and antibacterial properties was developed.

Abstract
The currently used hemoperfusion adsorbents such as activated carbon and ion-exchange resin show dissatisfactory hemocompatibility, and a large dose of injected heparin leads to the increasing cost and the risk of systematic bleeding. Natural polysaccharide adsorbents commonly have good biocompatibility, but their application is restricted by the poor mechanical strength and low content of functional groups. Herein, we developed an efficient, self-anticoagulant and blood compatible hemoperfusion adsorbent by imitating the structure and functional groups of heparin. Carrageenan and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) cross-linked networks were built up by the combination of phase inversion of carrageenan and post-cross-linking of AA, and the formed dual-network structure endowed the beads with improved mechanical properties and controlled swelling ratios. The beads exhibited low protein adsorption amounts, low hemolysis ratios, low cytotoxicity, and suppressed complement activation and contact activation levels. Especially, the activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and thrombin time of the gel beads were prolonged over 13, 18, and 4 times than those of the control. The self-anticoagulant and biocompatible beads showed good adsorption capacities toward exogenous toxins (560.34 mg/g for heavy metal ions) and endogenous toxins (14.83 mg/g for creatinine, 228.16 mg/g for bilirubin, and 18.15 mg/g for low density lipoprotein (LDL)), thus, highlighting their potential usage for safe and efficient blood purification.

Abstract
Blood compatibility is a long sought-after goal in biomaterials research, but remains an elusive one, and in spite of extensive work in this area, there is still no definitive information on the relationship between material properties and blood responses such as coagulation and thrombus formation. Materials modified with heparin-mimicking polymers have shown promise and indeed may be seen as comparable to materials modified with heparin itself. In this work, heparin was conceptualized as consisting of two major structural elements: saccharide- and sulfonate-containing units, and polymers based on this concept were developed. Copolymers of 2-methacrylamido glucopyranose, containing saccharide groups, and sodium 4-vinylbenzenesulfonate, containing sulfonate groups, were graft-polymerized on vinyl-functionalized polyurethane (PU) surfaces by free radical polymerization. This graft polymerization method is simple, and the saccharide and sulfonate contents are tunable by regulating the feed ratio of the monomers. Homopolymer-grafted materials, containing only sulfonate or saccharide groups, showed different effects on cell-surface interactions including platelet adhesion, adhesion and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells, and adhesion and proliferation of smooth muscle cells. The copolymer-grafted materials showed effects due to both sulfonate and saccharide elements with respect to blood responses, and the optimum composition was obtained at a 2:1 ratio of sulfonate to saccharide units (material designated as PU-PS1M1). In cell adhesion experiments, this material showed the lowest platelet and human umbilical vein smooth muscle cell density and the highest human umbilical vein endothelial cell density. Among the materials investigated, PU-PS1M1 also had the longest plasma clotting time. This material was thus shown to be multifunctional with a combination of properties, suggesting thromboresistant behavior in blood contact.

Abstract
Novel photocurable ternary polymer networks were prepared by incorporating N-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)-acrylamide (HMBA) into a cross-linked thiol-ene network based on poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate (PEGDA) and (mercaptopropyl)methylsiloxane homopolymers (MSHP). The ternary network materials displayed bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus and reduced the attachment of marine organism Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Extensive soaking of the polymer networks in aqueous solution indicated that no active antibacterial component leached out of the materials, and thus the ternary thiol-ene coating killed the bacteria by surface contact. The surface structures of the polymer networks with varied content ratios were studied by sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy. The results demonstrated that the PDMS Si-CH3 groups and mimic-capsaicine groups are predominantly present at the polymer-air interface of the coatings. Surface reorganization was apparent after polymers were placed in contact with D2O: the hydrophobic PDMS Si-CH3 groups left the surface and returned to the bulk of the polymer networks, and the hydrophilic PEG chains cover the polymer surfaces in D2O. The capasaicine methoxy groups are able to segregate to the surface in an aqueous environment, depending upon the ratio of HMBA/PEGDA. SFG measurements in situ showed that the antibacterial HMBA chains, rather than the nonfouling PEG, played a dominant role in mediating the antibiofouling performance in this particular polymer system.

Abstract
Composite poly(ether sulfone) membranes integrated with ZnO nanostructures either directly blended or grown in situ have enhanced antibacterial activity with improved functionality in reducing the biofouling in water treatment applications. The pore structure and surface properties of the composite were studied to investigate the effect of the addition of ZnO nanostructures. The hydrophilicity of the blended membranes increased with a higher content of ZnO nanoparticles in the membrane (2-6%), which could be further controlled by varying the growth conditions of ZnO nanorods on the polymer surface. Improved water flux, bovine serum albumin rejection, and inhibition of Escherichia coli bacterial growth under visible light irradiation was observed for the membranes decorated with ZnO nanorods compared to those in the membranes simply blended with ZnO nanoparticles. No regrowth of E. coli was recorded even 2 days after the incubation.

Abstract
Heterotopic ossification(HO) is a potential severe complication after many biomaterial implanting surgeries, and the inflammation environment caused by the implanting-associated infections is considered as the main nosogenesis. Herein, an inflammation-responsive drug release system was designed by chemically conjugating indometacin (via ester group) onto hydrogel coating to realize local self-regulated drug release to prevent HO. In our strategy, poly(3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane-co-acrylic acrylate and polyvinyl alcohol (providing anchoring sites for drug molecules) were firstly synthesized and functionalized with ene-groups, then a hydrogel layer was formed and covalently attached onto thiol-modified substrate via thiol-ene click chemistry, followed by grafting indometacin. A porous structure of the attached hydrogel layer was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and the presence of drug molecules in the hydrogel layer was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and UV-vis absorption spectra. The drug release could be triggered under the mimicking inflammation environment, and the release rate was responsive to the inflammation degree. In addition, after attaching the hydrogel coating, the substrate showed low cytotoxicity, and high promotion for cell adhesion and proliferation. The excellent hemocompatibility of the hydrogel coating was also demonstrated by prolonged clotting time and suppressed platelet adhesion. This work suggests that the inflammation-responsive indometacin conjugated hydrogel coating has great potential to be used for prophylaxis HO.

Abstract
To inhibit bacteria attachment and the subsequent formation of biofilms on poly(ether sulfone) (PES) membranes, poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate)/poly(sodium acrylate) antibacterial hydrogel thin layers were covalently attached onto the membranes, followed by loading with Ag nanoparticles. In our strategy, double bonds were firstly introduced onto the PES membrane surfaces to provide anchoring sites, and then the hydrogel layers were synthesized on the membrane surfaces via UV light-initiated crosslinking copolymerization. Then, Ag ions were adsorbed into the hydrogel layers and reduced to Ag nanoparticles by sodium borohydride. The amounts of the adsorbed Ag ions were controlled by the mole ratios of carboxylate groups in the hydrogel layers. After attaching the hydrogel layers, a typical 3D porous structure was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and the surface chemical composition variations were characterized by attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The live/dead staining, inhibition zone, and the optical degree of co-culture solution demonstrated that the designed surfaces could not only effectively resist bacteria attachment but also kill the surrounding bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. It was noteworthy that the strong antibacterial ability could be maintained for more than 5 weeks. Additionally, the excellent hemocompatibility of the modified membranes was confirmed by undetectable plasma protein adsorption, suppressed platelet adhesion, prolonged clotting time, low hemolysis ratio, and suppressed blood-related complement activation. Cell culture tests indicated that the membranes showed no cytotoxicity, but strong anti-cell adhesion properties. The proposed method to fabricate antibacterial hydrogel thin layers has great potential to be widely used to inhibit the formation of biofilms on various biomedical devices.

Abstract
A straightforward mussel-inspired approach was proposed to construct chitosan-polyurethane coatings and load Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) to endow polyethersulfone (PES) membranes with dual-antibacterial and antifouling properties. The macromolecule O-carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) was directly reacted with catechol in the absence of carbodiimide chemistry to form the coating and load AgNPs via in situ reduction; while lysine (Lys) was used as a representative small molecule for comparison. Then, PEG-based polyurethane (PU) was used for constructing Lys-Ag-PU and CMC-Ag-PU composite coatings, which substantially improved the protein antifouling property of the membranes. Furthermore, the CMC-Ag-PU coating exhibited superior broad-spectrum antibacterial property towards E. coli and S. aureus than Lys-Ag-PU coating. Meanwhile, the CMC-Ag-PU coating showed sustained antifouling property against bacteria and could reload AgNPs to be regenerated as antibacterial and antifouling coating. This approach is believed to have potential to fabricate reusable antifouling and antibacterial coatings on materials surfaces for aquatic industries.

Abstract
Once a biomedical implant is implanted into a human body, proteins and bacteria can easily colonize the implant, and subsequently, a biofilm can grow on the surface. A biofilm can protect the inhabiting bacteria against macrophages and neutrophil cell attack from the host immune system. The most important issue for artificial antibacterial surfaces is the accumulation of the bacteria corpse after they are killed by contact, which promotes further adhesion of bacteria and biofilm formation. Therefore, we constructed a novel multifunctional bactericidal and fouling release antibacterial surface through the combination of temperature-responsive N-vinylcaprolactam (VCL), hydrophilic 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and a bactericidal quaternary ammonium salt (2-(dimethylamino)-ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA+)). The terpolymer coating was prepared through surface-initiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization and characterized using water contact angle measurements, atomic force microscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry. At a temperature above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST), the P(VCL-co-DMAEMA+-co-MPC) terpolymer coating was in a compressed and hydrophobic state with low moisture content, which displayed bactericidal efficiency against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. The coating could be switched into a relatively hydrophilic surface at a temperature below the LCST, which showed self-cleaning properties against both bacteria and bovine serum albumin. The functionalized surface showed good biocompatibility against human lens epithelial cells as evaluated by morphology studies and activity measurements.

[PMID: 27591729 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2016.08.066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2016] [Revised: 08/26/2016] [Accepted: 08/26/2016] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
In this study, a robust and straightforward method to covalently attach multi-functional hydrogel thin layers onto substrates was provided. In our strategy, double bonds were firstly introduced onto substrates to provide anchoring points for hydrogel layers, and then hydrogel thin layers were prepared via surface cross-linking copolymerization of the immobilized double bonds with functional monomers. Sulfobetaine methacrylate (SBMA), sodium allysulfonate (SAS), and methyl acryloyloxygen ethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (METAC) were selected as functional monomers to form hydrogel layers onto polyether sulfone (PES) membrane surfaces, respectively. The thickness of the formed hydrogel layers could be controlled, and the layers showed excellent long-term stability. The PSBMA hydrogel layer exhibited superior antifouling property demonstrated by undetectable protein adsorption and excellent bacteria resistant property; after attaching PSAS hydrogel layer, the membrane showed incoagulable surface property when contacting with blood confirmed by the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) value exceeding 600s; while, the PMETAC hydrogel thin layer could effectively kill attached bacteria. The proposed method provides a new platform to directly modify material surfaces with desired properties, and thus has great potential to be widely used in designing materials for blood purification, drug delivery, wound dressing, and intelligent biosensors.
