Fibronectin Adsorption on Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces
Studies have been carried out on the adsorption properties of plasma fibronectin (FN) on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces used were nonwettable bacteriological dishes and wettable tissue culture dishes, respectively. At low plasma FN concentrations, there was more plasma FN binding to hydrophobic surfaces than to hydrophilic surfaces. Under these co...
متن کاملHydration of metal surfaces can be dynamically heterogeneous and hydrophobic
We have applied molecular dynamics and methods of importance sampling to study structure and dynamics of liquidwater in contact with metal surfaces. The specific surfaces considered resemble the 100 and 111 faces of platinum. Several results emerge that should apply generally, not just to platinum. These results are generic consequences of water molecules binding strongly to surfaces that are i...
متن کاملFluctuations of water near extended hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces.
We use molecular dynamics simulations of the SPC-E model of liquid water to derive probability distributions for water density fluctuations in probe volumes of different shapes and sizes, both in the bulk as well as near hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. Our results are obtained with a biased sampling of coarse-grained densities that is easily combined with molecular dynamics integration al...
متن کاملNew Method to Generate Reversible Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Surfaces
Designer particles synthesized by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization were adsorbed successfully on the sapphire discs. The particles carried a thin layer of an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiator on the surface and were subsequently successfully used to graft PNIPAAM brushes from the surface. The surface coverage of the discs by these particles could be improved by heat t...
متن کاملEarly osseointegration to hydrophilic and hydrophobic implant surfaces in humans.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the rate and degree of osseointegration at chemically modified moderately rough, hydrophilic (SLActive) and moderately rough, hydrophobic (SLA) implant surfaces during early phases of healing in a human model. MATERIAL AND METHODS The devices used for this study of early healing were 4 mm long and 2.8 mm in diameter and had either an SLActive chemically modified or a mod...
