Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study has yielded aliphatic polycarbonates with an ether side chain demonstrating the selective cell adhesive property where little platelets adhere but endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells were adsorbed well. The polycarbonates were also found to be degradable in the presence of lipase. Moreover, a new synthetic route to the cyclic carbonate monomers with functional side chain has been established in the process of developing the new polycarbonates. The antithrombotic polycarbonates can be applied to decreasing hemolytic property of a cationic antimicrobial polycarbonate. These findings will be exploited for further developments of medical devices that require biodegradability, blood compatibility, and cell adhesive property.
