A study on poly (N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) covalently bonded NiTi surface for inhibiting protein adsorption

Near equiatomic NiTi alloys have been extensively applied as biomaterials owing to its unique shape memory effect, superelasticity and biocompatibility. It has been demonstrated that surfaces capable of preventing plasma protein adsorption could reduce the reactivity of biomaterials with human blood...
