Abstract:
2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) polymer membranes are synthesized as biomaterials of the biomembrane structure. The MPC polymer membranes have excellent biocompatibility and blood compatibility, they can effectively reduce protein adsorption and denaturation and inhibit cell adhesion even when the polymer membranes are in contact with whole blood in the absence of any anticoagulants. So, the MPC polymer membranes are widely used in blood purification, artificial organs, membrane oxygenator, and other field of biomedicine. The paper mainly expounds the research advancement and the application prospect of MPC polymer membranes.
