Braiding of Nitinol micro wires is an established technology for the manufacturing of fine-meshed neurovascular implants for tortuous vessel geometries. Electropolishing of wires before the braiding process has the potential to improve the in vitro behaviour in terms of thrombogenicity and endothelial cell proliferation. In this study, we present the first in vitro investigation of braided electropolished/blue oxide Nitinol samples in a blood flow loop, showing a significantly lower activation of the coagulation pathway (represented by the TAT III marker) and a tendency towards reduced platelet adhesion. Furthermore, we applied the same surface treatment on flat disks and measured protein adhesion as well as endothelial cell proliferation. We compared our results to non-electropolished samples with a native oxide surface. While platelet deposition was reduced on electropolished/blue oxide surface, a significant increase of endothelial cell seeding was observed. Investigation of inflammatory marker expression in endothelial cells provided divergent results depending on the marker tested, demanding closer investigation. Surface analysis using Auger electron spectroscopy revealed a thin layer mainly consisting of titanium oxynitride or titanium oxide + titanium nitride as a potential cause of the improved biological performance. Translated to the clinical field of intracranial aneurysm treatment, the improved biocompatibility has the potential to increase both safety (low thrombogenicity) and effectiveness (aneurysm neck reconstruction).
