DLC is sufficiently hemocompatible?
• DLC film is not a specific material but a group of amorphous carbon thin films. For each application, we need to optimize the property.

aPTT Measurement
• Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) determines the ability of blood to coagulate through the intrinsic coagulation mechanism.
• Soaking for 60min in platelet poor plasma (PPP: 7x103/l) using human whole blood from healthy volunteer.

Plasma Protein Adsorption
• ELISA analysis after treating the samples with albumin (3mg/ml) and fibrinogen (0.2mg/ml) solution.
• Better hemocompatibility can be expected on the surface with higher ratio of albumin/fibrinogen adsorption.

Conclusions
• Hemocompatibility of Si-DLC film would be improved by surface treatment using nitrogen and oxygen plasma.– Large surface energy (large polar component)– Low interfacial energy with blood
• Aging of the surface with large surface energy should be carefully considered in characterizing their surface properties. Characterization should be done within 12 hours after the treatment.
