Synthesis of blood compatible polyamide block copolymers.

Blood compatibility of polyamides has been improved by introducing amido-amine groups in polymer backbone. Polyamide block-copolymer are synthesized by reacting amine end-capped polyamides with N,N'-methylene-bisacrylamide. Polyamide block-copolymers, thus produced found to have the ability of absorbing heparin. Heparinized polyamide block-copolymers have shown significant improvement in blood compatibility as evident from thrombus formation and hemolysis studies.
