(1pt tоtаl) Prоtein аdsоrption to biomаterials is dependent on the properties of both the proteins and biomaterial surface. An ASU research group generated a new polymeric coating for cardiovascular stents. The researchers would like to evaluate the potential adsorption of serum proteins to the polymeric coating. (0.25pts) The researchers acquired a fresh blood serum sample from a blood donor. They first want to evaluate adsorption of individual serum proteins to the polymer surface. They decided to separate the blood serum proteins based on hydrophobicity via HPLC (Normal-phase). Briefly describe normal-phase HPLC. (0.25pts) Use the provide HPLC spectra below to arrange the proteins from most to least hydrophobic proteins (proteins 1-6). (0.5pts) The polymer coating provided a very smooth yet hydrophobic surface finish over the metallic stent. Graphically compare the predicted level of protein adsorption to the polymeric surface over time for Protein 1 and Protein 6. Assume that each protein is tested individually (do not consider competitive binding).
