Developing correlations between fibrinogen adsorption and surface properties using multivariate statistics. Student Research Award in the Doctoral Degree Candidate Category, 20th annual meeting of the Society for Biomaterials, Boston, MA, April 5-9, 1994.
A multivariate model based on the partial least squares algorithm (PLS) was constructed in order to establish a correlation between the surface properties of common polymeric materials and the amount and retention of fibrinogen absorbed from a complex mixture. Surface characterization was performed by means of static secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS), electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), and by contact angle measurements of several liquids on those materials. 125I-fibrinogen was adsorbed from a 1% plasma solution in buffer and the amount adsorbed after 2 h was determined. After 5 days of residence time in buffer, the adsorbed fibrinogen was eluted with a 1% solution of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The percent of fibrinogen that remained on the surfaces after elution is referred to as fibrinogen retention. Correlations between surface properties and the amounts of fibrinogen adsorbed or fibrinogen retention were established. These models also show the most important variables that are related to the protein behavior on these surfaces.
