Article Title: Antithrombotic and antibacterial surface coating based on spiky silver nanoparticles: A counterattack against clotting and biofilm
doi: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2026.102762
Figure Lengend Snippet: Anticoagulant performance of surface coatings. (A) Protein adsorption on the surfaces. (B) Platelet adhesion density quantified from (C) fluorescence images of DiOC6-stained platelets. Clotting times determined using (D) APTT and (E) TT assays. Statistical comparisons of samples with PET were performed using a one-way ANOVA test.
Article Snippet: For the APTT assay, 50 μL of PPP was combined with 50 μL of APTT reagent (Dade® Actin FSL, Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany) and incubated at 37 °C for 30 min.
