The biocompatibility of iron-polysaccharide complexes has been well-documented. Herein, a stable thrombo-resistant coating was fabricated by consecutive adsorption of Fe (III) and polysaccharides including heparin (Hep) and dextran sulfate (DS) onto various surface by layer-by-layer self-assembly technique via both electrostatic interaction and chemical complexation process. The absorbance at 350 nm increased linearly with the number of Fe3+/Hep multilayer, indicating the formation of multilayer structure and the uniform coating. Compared with (Fe3+/Hep)10, the (Fe3+/DS/Fe3+/Hep)5 coating was more hydrophilic and stable due to the incorporation of DS. The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and platelet adhesion assays showed that both (Fe3+/Hep)10 and (Fe3+/DS/Fe3+/Hep)5 coated surfaces were anticoagulant. The complexing with ferric ions did not compromise the catalytic capacity of heparin to promote antithrombin(III)-mediated thrombin inactivation. Chromogenic assays for heparin activity proved definitively that the inhibition of locally produced thrombin was contributed to the thromboresistance of the surface-bound heparin. The surface with Hep or DS as the outmost layer showed stronger anticoagulant activity than Fe3+, indicating that the outermost layer of the coating played a key role in anticoagulant activity. The utilization of dextran sulfate/heparin surfaces was more advantageous than merely the heparin surface for improving blood-contacting medical devices for long-term usage.
