Surface modification of biomaterials can improve the performance and lifetime of current
metallic implantable devices. Metal oxide coatings represent a potential surface modification …

A common goal across different fields (eg separations, biosensors, biomaterials,
pharmaceuticals) is to understand how protein behavior at solid–liquid interfaces is affected …

The emergence and reemergence of microbial infection demand an urgent response to
develop effective biomaterials that prevent biofilm formation and associated bacterial …

Through the use of single-molecule total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, the
dynamic behavior of fibrinogen was observed at the interface between aqueous solution …

Fibrinogen has been known since the mid-nineteenth century. Although initially its interest
had been within the field of physiology over time its study has spread to new disciplines …

In presented study a new approach using QCM-D for biocompatibility determination was
introduced. The adsorption of fibrinogen on PET and modified PET surfaces was monitored …

We synthesized nano-scaled periodic ripple patterns on silicon and titanium dioxide (TiO2)
surfaces by xenon ion irradiation, and performed adsorption experiments with human …

One of the first events occurring upon foreign material-biological medium contact is the
adsorption of proteins, which evolution greatly determines the cells response to the material …

The aim of this investigation was to understand and engineer the interactions between
endothelial cells and the electrospun (ES) polyvinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene …

When a biomaterial is inserted into the body, proteins rapidly adsorb onto its surface,
creating a conditioning protein film that functions as a link between the implant and adhering …
