Title:
OXIDATIVE METHOD FOR ATTACHMENT OF GLYCOPROTEINS OR GLYCOPEPTIDES TO SURFACES OF MEDICAL DEVICES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1999027968
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for making a medical device having at least one glycoprotein and/or glycopeptide immobilized on a substrate surface is provided. The method may include oxidizing 1,2 dihydroxy moieties with a periodate to form an aldehyde-functional material; combining the aldehyde-functional material with an amino-functional material to bond the two materials together through an imine moiety; and reacting the imine moiety with a reducing agent to form a secondary amine. Another method of the present invention may be employed to crosslink glycoproteins and/or glycopeptides immobilized on medical device surfaces. Additionally, one method of the present invention may be employed to crosslink glycoproteins and/or glycopeptides, thereby forming a crosslinked biomaterial or a crosslinked medical device coating.
