Abstract
Surface physico-chemical properties (e.g. chemistry, charge, morphology, wettability, electrical conductivity, optical and mechanical properties) of treated surfaces were determined. The enhancement of adhesion and proliferation of cells on modified substrates was investigated in vitro. Bactericidal action of noble metal nano-particles (e.g. Au, Ag) on polymers was characterized. The influence of metal nano-particle grafting by using metal nano-particle suspension prepared by “green” methods was determined. Micro- and nano-patterned surfaces can be constructed as tissue scaffolds with specific functions regarding cell adhesion and proliferation or potential biosensor applications.
