“…However, Fn has been shown to preferentially absorb from diluted serum onto less hydrophobic surfaces. The maximum in adsorption correlates with the maximum in cell attachment and spreading (11,18). However, there are inconsistencies in explaining the exact role of Fn in cell attachment and growth.…”

“…Since protein adsorption from serum containing media occurs rapidly (12), direct contact of cells onto the polymer surface is unlikely to occur unless serum is absent. Functional groups present on the polymer surface are believed to affect cell behavior due to differences in the adsorption and conformation of proteins (11,(18)(19)(20).…”

“…In addition, the initial spreading of 3T3 cells on HEMA-EMA copolymers is linearly correlated with the amount of fibronectin adsorbed to the surfaces from serum (61). Similarly, plasma deposited polymers which enhanced 3T3 and muscle myoblast cell growth also enhanced fibronectin adsorption from serum in comparison to untreated surfaces (63). Depletion studies, in which the fibronectin or vitronectin are selectively removed from the serum, have shown that vitronectin, rather than fibronectin, appears to be the primary adhesion factor for certain cells and surfaces (62,(64)(65)(66).…”

“…25 Perfluoropropylene ͑C 3 F 6 ͒ ͑Matheson Gas Products, Newark, CA͒ was used as the precursor. During deposition, a pressure of 150 mTorr and a flow rate of 4 sccm were maintained under 20 W power for 3 min to obtain the fluoropolymer coating.…”
