Alternatively the surface can be sequentially dip coated and/or sprayed with the individual components. In a preferred embodiment, the anticoagulant is a quaternary ammonium complex of heparin, preferably stearyldimethylbenzyl ammonium heparin and the antifoaming, agent is a mixture of polydimethylsiloxane and silicone dioxide.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 20, 1992 and granted July 18, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 20, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 20, 2014.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
