“…These results are in accordance with previously published findings on HUVECs-matrix adhesion on degradable polymer scaffolds [4]. Crosslinking of extracellular matrix protein right before their implementation as a coating on the polymer surface seemingly does not convey any beneficial effects on the adhesion of human endothelial cells in vitro.…”

“…11,[18][19][20]23,57,58,60 Surface chemical properties of implant materials have been shown to affect protein adsorption and acute cellular responses. 33,34,42,[61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69] In the present study, we examined the hypothesis that biomaterial-mediated fibrotic reactions could be substantially reduced by altering both the type and/ordensity of surface functionality…”

“…Characteristic amino-related bonds, such as C-N stretching at 1190-1130 cm−1 or N-H (1400-1000 cm−1), were not identified. However, the amino (C-N) and amide (N-C_O) groups on the polymer surface after the ammonia-plasma treatment were identified using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy [15,17]. Therefore, the FT-IR ATR technique did not provide a clear understanding of the formation of amino, C_O, C-O-C or other groups because only the surface layers of the polymers were modified by the plasma and the information depth of the analysis was in the range of 1-2 μm.…”

“…However, the wettability of the P3HB may vary with the structure and composition of the surface, e.g., the surface topography, content of the crystalline and amorphous phases, and the presence of polar functional groups with a specific charge [10]. Radio-frequency (RF) plasma is usually used to treat the surface of different polymers [14,15]. Reactive gases allowus to obtain the necessary functional groups on the P3HB surface and also impart other properties, such as bioactivity [16][17][18][19].…”
