Abstract The adsorption of fibrinogen can be used as a quick indicator of surface haemocompatibility because of its prominent role in coagulation and platelet adhesion. In this work the molecular interaction between fibrinogen and a modified titanium oxide surface/platelet has been studied by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) in situ. In order to further characterize the conformation of adsorbed fibrinogen, aC and ·-chain antibody were used to check the orientation and denaturation of fibrinogen on solid surface. QCM-D investigations revealed the fibrinogen have the trend to adsorb on hydrophilic surface in a side-on orientation by positively charged aC domains, which would reduce the exposure of platelet bonding site on · chain and enable less platelet adhesion and be activated. These observations suggest that certain conformations of adsorbed fibrinogen are less platelet adhesive than others, which opens a possibility for creating a non-platelet adhesive substrates. © 2014 Chinese Physical Society
