GCC Coating exhibits superior blood compatibility. (A, B) GCC coating inhibits the adhesion and activation of platelets. Platelets were plated on 316L SS surfaces with DAC, GDC or GCC for 1 h. The adhered cells were then fixed and imaged by SEM. Rectangular indicates cell spreading and aggregation, while red arrow represents pseudopods. The number of adhered platelets was quantified in (B). the level of platelet activation on the GCC surface (represented by the pseudopodia) was much lower than other three groups, while the GDC coating showed the highest platelet activation. (C) GCC coating exhibits low hemolysis rate. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01
