The graphical representation of the LDH assay results demonstrating the ability of Cu-NPs incorporated SNAP films to reduce platelet adhesion after exposure to porcine platelet rich plasma (PRP) in a 2 h study. The 3 wt% Cu-SNAP provided the largest decrease in platelet adhesion, showing a 92% reduction when compared to controls (p = 0.003). P-values < 0.05 were considered significantly different. Note: * indicates significant difference with respect to (w.r.t) the control; $ indicates significant difference w.r.t 1 wt% Cu-Carbosil films; # indicates significant difference w.r.t the 3 wt% Cu-Carbosil films and + indicates significant difference w.r.t the SNAP films. The error bar represents standard deviation.
