Notes:
A simple method is described for predicting aspects of the adsorptive behavior of selected plasma proteins on a wide range of implant surfaces from a limited number of interfacial free energy measurements. Although the theoretical basis of the predictive treatment is open to debate, it is suggested that the method may be of value in the further understanding of implant biocompatibility.
