    Abstract

    The Ti-O films were synthesized by Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation and Deposition (PIII-D) to interpret its blood compatibility. Platelets adhesion test was used for evaluating the blood compatibility of the Ti-O film in comparison with low temperature isotropic pyrolytic carbon (LTIC). It was observed that the platelets adhered on the Ti-O film was less than that on the LTIC, and there was no aggregation and pseudopodium on the Ti-O film. The result shows that the semi-conductor Ti-O film with wide band gap impede the charge transfer from fibrinogen to bulk biomaterials, which reduce the risk of the denaturation of fibrinogen.
