Hemocompatibility and oxidative stress are significant for blood-contacting devices. In this study, N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and N-(3-aminopropyl)methacrylamide hydrochloride (APMA) were cografted on polypropylene (PP) membrane using ultraviolet grafting to load antioxidative d-伪-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) and control the release of TPGS. The immobilization of NIPAAm and APMA onto PP membrane was confirmed by attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Combined with data from platelet adhesion, red blood cell (RBC) attachment, and hemolysis rate, the hemocompatibility of PP was significantly improved. An in-depth characterization using hemolysis rate test, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy was conducted to confirm that the mechanism of the release of TPGS interacted with RBCs was different at different stages. The release of TPGS from the loading PP membranes affected hemolysis at different stages. At the early stage of release, TPGS maintained the tiny (nanometer-sized) tubers on the membrane surface and enhanced the membrane permeabilization by generating nanosized pores on the cell membranes. Afterward, the incorporated TPGS slowed the lipid peroxidation of erythrocytes and filled in the lipid bilayer of erythrocyte to prevent hemolysis. Thus, the approach implemented to graft NIPAAm and APMA and load TPGS was suitable to develop medical device with excellent hemocompatibility and antioxidative property.
