Polysulfone (PSF) was grafted chemically with polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights (400, 2000, 10 000, and 20 000) and heparin to prepare PSF-PEG-Hep membranes (labeled as PSF-PEG400-Hep, PSF-PEG2000-Hep, PSF-PEG10 000-Hep, and PS...
Platelet adhesion to blood vessel walls in shear flow is essential to initiating the blood coagulation cascade and prompting clot formation in vascular disease processes and prosthetic cardiovascular devices. Validation of predictive adhesion kinemat...
