Controlled oxygen plasma treatment of single-walled carbon nanotube films improves osteoblastic cells attachment and enhances their proliferation
2011
Abstract
The influence of different time of oxygen plasma treatment on SWCNT films and adhesion and growth of osteoblasts was investigated. It was found that long time of treatment demages the SWCNT film as well as osteoblasts do not properly adhere and proliferace, on the other hand short time of treatment improves osteoblasts adhesion and proliferation.
