Conducting polymer-based multilayer films for instructive biomaterial coatings
AIM To demonstrate the design, fabrication and testing of conformable conducting biomaterials that encourage cell alignment. MATERIALS & METHODS Thin conducting composite biomaterials based on multilayer films of poly(3.4-ethylenedioxythiophene) derivatives, chitosan and gelatin were prepared in a layer-by-layer fashion. Fibroblasts were observed with fluorescence microscopy and their alignme...
متن کاملPolymer Based Antimicrobial Coatings as Potential Biomaterial : A Review
Antimicrobial polymers are class of polymers with antimicrobial activity. The control of microbial infection is a very important issue in modern society. Increasing hygiene standards and the threat of infectious disease demand materials with surfaces that inhibit the survival and proliferation of microbes. The antimicrobial polymers are produced by attaching or inserting an active antimicrobial...
متن کاملMultilayer Nano Films for Corrosion Control
Nano films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolytes have been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer (LBL) sequential assembly technique on treated and untreated mild steel wires. Inhibitor was encapsulated between cationic and anionic polyelectrolyte nano films. This paper mainly focuses on the effect of these nano-films of poly...
متن کاملMultilayer Structures for Biomaterial Applications
The cellular response to a biomaterial, such as a dental implant, is mainly governed by the surface properties, and can thus be altered by the introduction of a surface coating. In this thesis the buildup of a biomacromolecule-based coating formed by layerby-layer (LbL) deposition of the charged polypeptides poly(-lysine) (PLL) and poly(glutamic acid) (PGA) has been studied. In an attempt to ...
متن کاملElectrochemical Analysis of Conducting Polymer Thin Films
Polyelectrolyte multilayers built via the layer-by-layer (LbL) method has been one of the most promising systems in the field of materials science. Layered structures can be constructed by the adsorption of various polyelectrolyte species onto the surface of a solid or liquid material by means of electrostatic interaction. The thickness of the adsorbed layers can be tuned precisely in the nanom...
