Abstract
Abstract A method is provided for immobilizing a biomolecule coating on the surface of a medical device to obtain improved biocompatibility characteristics for contacting with tissue or body fluids such as blood. The method includes oxidizing a 2-aminoalcohol moiety of a material disposed on the surface with a periodate to form an aldehyde moiety, combining the aldehyde moiety with an amine moiety of a material to bond the aldehyde moiety to the amine moiety through an imine moiety and reacting the imine moiety with a reducing agent to form the coating immobilized on the surface by an amine linkage. Alternatively, the method includes providing on the surface a coating containing the materials having the 2-aminoalcohol moiety and the amine moiety, applying a periodate to oxidize the 2-aminoalcohol moiety to an aldehyde moiety, allowing the aldehyde moiety to react with the amine moiety through an imine moiety and reducing the imine moiety to form an amine linkage crosslinking the 2-aminoalcohol moiety to the amine moiety. The material containing the 2-aminoalcohol moiety or the amine moiety can be a biomolecule or a substrate surface of a medical device. Biomolecules such as proteins or peptides containing a 2-aminoalcohol moiety can be attached to an aminated surface or an aminated biomolecule can be attached to surface having a 2-aminoalcohol moiety.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A method of crosslinking a coating on a surface of a medical device, the coating imparting improved biocompatibility characteristics to the surface, the surface being suitable for contacting tissue or blood, the method comprising the ordered steps of: (a) producing on the surface a coating comprising a 2-aminoalchol moiety and an amine moiety; (b) applying a periodate to the coating to oxidize the 2-aminoalcohol moiety to form an aldehyde moiety; (c) allowing the aldehyde moiety to combine with the amine moiety to form an imine moiety; and (d) reacting the imine moiety with a reducing agent to form an amine linkage and thereby cause at least portions of the coating to crosslink.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
112 words
