Abstract
An effort is made to study the anti-thrombogenic property of the latex of fig tree by immobilizing its components on nylon surface. It is also evaluated, how such surfaces may effect the blood compatibility by investigating variations in surface energy parameters, plasma recalcification time and platelet adhesion using calf’s blood.
