Abstract

The invention provides methods of immobilizing an active agent to a substrate surface, including the steps of, providing a substrate, contacting the substrate with a solution of a compound including a trihydroxyphenyl group, thereby forming a trihydroxyphenyl-treated substrate, and contacting the trihydroxyphenyl-treated substrate with an active agent, thereby immobilizing the active agent on the substrate. Further provided are methods of immobilizing an active agent on a substrate, including the steps of providing a substrate, combining a solution of a compound including a trihydroxyphenyl group with a solution of an active agent, thereby forming a solution of an active agent-trihydroxyphenyl conjugate, and contacting the substrate with the solution of the active agent-trihydroxyphenyl conjugate, thereby immobilizing the active agent on the substrate. The invention further provides substrates and medical device or device components with active agents immobilized on the surface thereof.

First claim

What is claimed:

2 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the substrate is metal, inorganic oxide, ceramic, semiconductor or polymeric.

3 . The substrate of claim 2 , wherein the substrate comprises a non-metal substrate having a coating comprising metal.

4 . The substrate of claim 2 , wherein the substrate comprises a polymer selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile butadiene styrenes, polyacrylonitriles, polyamides, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyetheretherketones, polyetherimides, polyethylenes, polyethylene terephthalates, polylactic acids, polymethyl methacrylates, polypropylenes, polystyrenes, polyurethanes, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chlorides, polyethers, polysulfones, silicones, polydimethylsiloxanes, polytetrafluoroethylene, and blends and copolymers thereof.

5 . The substrate of claim 2 , wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of stainless steel, cobalt, titanium, nickel, zirconium, tantalum, chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, manganese, iron, vanadium, niobium, hafnium, aluminum, tin, palladium, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, gold, silver, platinum, oxides of the foregoing, alloys of the foregoing, and combinations of the foregoing.

6 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the trihydroxyphenyl group is selected from the group consisting of a small molecule comprising a trihydroxyphenyl group and a polymer comprising a trihydroxyphenyl group.

7 . The substrate of claim 1 , further comprising a linker compound coupled to the trihydroxyphenyl group, wherein the linker compound includes an active agent coupled thereto, thereby forming a substrate with an active agent immobilized on the surface thereof.

8 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the active agent is selected from the group consisting of antimicrobial agents, antifouling agents, anticoagulants, anti-inflammatory agents, and antithrombogenic agents.

9 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the active agent comprises an antimicrobial agent and the antimicrobial agent is an antibacterial agent.

10 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the active agent comprises an anti-inflammatory agent and the anti-inflammatory agent is a complement inhibitor.

11 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the active agent is selected from the group consisting of chitosan, linear polyethylene glycol, looped polyethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol derivatives, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatives, fractionated heparin, unfractionated heparin, heparin derivatives, quaternary ammonium polymers, albumin, polyethylenimine, 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives, and combinations of the foregoing.

12 . The substrate of claim 1 , wherein the trihydroxyphenyl group is covalently bound to the active agent.

13 . A medical device comprising the substrate of claim 1 .

14 . The medical device of claim 13 , wherein the medical device comprises an extracorporeal blood circuit or component of an extracorporeal blood circuit.

15 . The medical device of claim 13 , wherein the medical device is selected from the group consisting of tubing, fluid bags, septa, stopcocks, clamps, filters, catheters, needles, and cannulae.
