Solvent casting was used to produce films in the micrometer range and successful cell adhesion and proliferation was highly dependent … Show more

“…). The reason why the pNIPAm films become increasingly cell repulsive with increasing film thickness is unclear though it is probably associated with the increased mobility of the polymer chains with increasing film thickness leading to increased hydration which is non‐conducive to protein adsorption which mediates cell attachment, this increased hydrophilicity for the thicker 4 µm thick films was analytically reflected in the advancing contact angle measurements …”

“…For solvent cast films, 2% w/v polymer solution in EtOH was spread on 35 mm TCP. The thickness of the solvent cast film can be estimated from total mass of polymer spread over defined area of Petri dish assuming dry polymer density 1 g cm –3 …”

“…We used the seeding density of 8000 cells/cm 2 as a control in this experiment, since this seeding density is often used for expansion [7]. The seeding densities 20,000, 50,000 and 400,000 cells/cm 2 were selected based on previous studies examining cell sheets [10, 26, 36]. After overnight attachment, we refreshed the cells with LG-DMEM with 1% FBS, 50 μg/ml gentamicin and 1.5 μg/ml fungizone® (control condition).…”

“…To date, PNIPAm has been the most employed synthetic polymer to prepare thermo-responsive MIPs, due to its LCST which is close to the temperature of the human body [93]. One of the earliest thermo-responsive MIPs was reported by Watanabe et al [87].…”
