A. Krylov, “Swan, Pike and Crawfish”Studies of blood–biomaterial interactions can be tracedback more than a century. Surprisingly little progress hasbeen made during that time, either in terms of understandingwhat goes on at the surface of materials that come into con-tact with blood, or improving the properties of these surfa-ces, prompting the quote from a famous fable as a parablefor the unsatisfactory state of affairs: all existing artificialmaterials that come into contact with blood induce adversereactions such as thrombosis and inflammation.The reliance of clinical practice on artificial materials inimplants and other devices continues to increase, and so doesthe success with which implants and other devices help saveand improve patients’ lives. Underlying this progress is theability of clinicians to therapeutically manage the adversereactions caused by biomaterials rather than the improve-ments of the materials themselves. In an effort to correct thisimbalance, we initiated a number of activities, including theBloodSurf meeting that took place in 2014 in Frejus (74thInternational IUVSTA Workshop on Blood–BiomaterialInteractions: Surface Analysis meets Blood Compatibility,http://www.vide.org/bloodsurf) and this In Focus collectiondedicated to the subject. An impressive range of topics iscovered here in the form of experimental papers, reviews,and opinion pieces.As protein adsorption and platelet activation at biomate-rial surfaces are still considered central to the developmentof adverse reactions, both feature prominently in severalpapers. In this context, the report of Cornelius et al.1 on theinteraction of lipoproteins with bare and polyethyleneglycol-modified polyurethane surfaces can be highlighted, aswell as the two reports pointing to differences in plasmaprotein adsorption and activation at different surfaces.2,9Szott et al.2 and Gupta et al.3 also report differences in plate-let activation between different surfaces. The two latter stud-ies contribute to the growing body of evidence that plateletspreading may not be representative of other activation phe-nomena. Endothelialization of a vascular implant (a heartvalve prosthetic) is considered by Ghanbari et al.4 Testingand screening approaches are discussed in their own rightand as a part of larger, systematic studies. The importance offresh blood in hemocompatibility testing is revisited by Bloket al.5 Another important topic—that of biomaterials for pla-telet storage—is raised by Farrugia et al.6 Current conditionsof platelet storage are utterly unsatisfactory due to limitedduration and the requirement for relatively high tempera-tures, which contribute to the risk of bacterial contamination.Jung and Braune7 discuss principles of thrombogenicity andhemocompatibility testing, emphasizing that future studieshave to show which of the in vitro test assays has predictivevalue for thrombotic processes at implant surfaces. Somefundamental aspects of the bio/non-bio interfaces relevant tovarious types of implants (not only vascular) are discussedby Reviakine.8The practitioners of the field of biological surfaces andinterfaces are uniquely poised for advancing hemocompati-bility research through their ability to bridge disciplines. Wehope that this In Focus collection becomes a stepping stonetoward further progress.1R. M. Cornelius, J. Macri, K. M. Cornelius, and J. Brash, Biointerphases11, 029810 (2016).2L. Mayorga Szott, C.
