Plasma processes of interest for tissue engineering, biosensors and related applications have been utilized for micro-scale patterning polymers with 'physical masks'. The surface of polystyrene substrates has been patterned with different chemical micro-domains. each one able to induce different adhesion, spreading and growth behavior of cells. Cell adhesive tracks spaced with wider non-fouling PEO-like zones have been developed at the surface of the substrates, and utilized in cell growth experiments.

Abstract
Plasma processes of interest for tissue engineering, biosensors and related applications have been utilized for micro-scale patterning polymers with 'physical masks'. The surface of polystyrene substrates has been patterned with different chemical micro-domains. each one able to induce different adhesion, spreading and growth behavior of cells. Cell adhesive tracks spaced with wider non-fouling PEO-like zones have been developed at the surface of the substrates, and utilized in cell growth experiments.File in questo prodotto:
