ABSTRACT 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 abso…
