Poly(ethylene terephthalate) films were exposed under argon plasma glow discharge and induced polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) in order to introduce carboxylic acid group onto PET (PET-AA) assisting by ultroviolet radiation. Hirudin-immobilized PETs were prepared by the grafting of PET-AA, followed by chemical reaction with hirudin. The surface structure of the treated PET is determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The wettability and surface free energy, interface free energy of the films is investigated by contact angle measurement. Platelet adhesion evaluatiion is conducted to examine the blood compatibility in vitro. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy reveal that the amounts of adhered, aggregated and morphologically changed platelets are reduced on hirudin-immobilized PET films.

Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptidomimetics constructed on the tyrosine scaffold were equipped with an oligoethylene glycol (OEG) spacer-arm for surface grafting. Their in vitro activities as V3 integrin antagonists were in the range of 0.3-0.7 nM. Poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) membranes derivatized with peptidomimetics (50-120 pmol/cm2) allowed the adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells (HSV) in serum-free medium. Iron oxide particles for MR Imaging grafted with peptidomimetics (2-3 molecules/particle of 20 nm diameter) were selectively targeted to activated tumour cells (Jurkat).

Biomedical PET films were modified by the approach of chitosan-surface-grafting. Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that chitosan molecules were successfully grafted on the PET surface. The bacterial adhesion on the modified surface was evaluated by bacteria plate counting in vitro and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results testified that chitosan did make the surface of PET become more antibacterial. The free energy of adhesion (∆Fadh) between the bacteria and the chitosan-immobilized surface of PET was calculated. The value of the ∆Fadh was positive, which suggests that the process of bacterial adhesion on the modified PET surface was not thermodynamically favorable, namely, not spontaneous.

We report a study involving chitosan chains immobilized on poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films by plasma and ultraviolet (UV) grafting modification. The surface structure of the modified PET is determined by means of attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infraed spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that the chains of chitosan are successfully grafted on the surface of PET. Platelet adhesion evaluation in vitro is conducted to examine the blood compatibility in vitro. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy reveal that the amounts of adhered, aggregated and morphologically changed platelets are reduced on the chitosan-immobilized PET films. The number of platelet adhered on the modified film is reduced by almost 48% compared to the amount of platelets on the untreated film. Our result thus shows that chitosan immobilized on the PET surface improves blood compatibility.
