T1 - NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) Coatings on Gold Sensors-a QCM Study of Hemocompatibility JF - Sensors N2 - The reliability of implantable blood sensors is often hampered by unspecific adsorption of plasma proteins and blood cells. This not only leads to a loss of sensor signal over time, but can also result in undesired host vs. graft reactions. Within this study we evaluated the hemocompatibility of isocyanate conjugated star shaped polytheylene oxide-polypropylene oxide co-polymers NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) when applied to gold surfaces as an auspicious coating material for gold sputtered blood contacting sensors. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors were coated with ultrathin NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) films and compared with uncoated gold sensors. Protein resistance was assessed by QCM measurements with fibrinogen solution and platelet poor plasma (PPP), followed by quantification of fibrinogen adsorption. Hemocompatibility was tested by incubation with human platelet rich plasma (PRP). Thrombin antithrombin-III complex (TAT), beta-thromboglobulin (beta-TG) and platelet factor 4 (PF4) were used as coagulation activation markers. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to visualize platelet adhesion to the sensor surfaces. Compared to uncoated gold sensors, NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) coated sensors revealed significant better resistance against protein adsorption, lower TAT generation and a lower amount of adherent platelets. Moreover, coating with ultrathin NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) films creates a cell resistant hemocompatible surface on gold that increases the chance of prolonged sensor functionality and can easily be modified with specific receptor molecules.

Die Infektion einer Endoprothese oder Osteosyntheseplatte mit Biofilmbildung bedeutet dabei eine schwerwiegende postoperative Komplikation. Ein Schwerpunkt medizinischer Forschung beschäftigt sich aus diesem Grunde mit der Entwicklung antiseptischer Oberflächen. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt die Weiterentwicklung einer in der Abteilung für Funktionswerkstoffe der Medizin und der Zahnheilkunde der Universitätsklinik Würzburg entwickelten elektrochemischen Calciumhydroxidbeschichtung auf Titan. Durch die gezielte Dotierung der Ausgangsschicht mit Silberionen konnte die starke kurzfristige Antisepsis des Calciumhydroxides mit einer wirksamen und langfristigen bakteriziden Wirkung des Silbers kombiniert werden. N2 - The use of bone-fixed implants, endoprosthesis and osteosythesis plates made of titanium are common treatements in medicine. Post-operative infections associated with biofilm-formation are a serious complication in surgery. Therefore, a focus in medical research deals with the developement of antiseptic surface coatings. This study describes the advancement of an electrochemical deposited surface coating made of calcium hydroxide on titanium, developed at “Abteilung für Funktionswerkstoffe der Medizin und der Zahnheilkunde” at University Hospital Würzburg. It was possible to combine the strong short-term antisepsis of calcium hydroxide with an effective long-term bactericide action by silber ions.
