Cell adhesion and proliferation onto chitosan-based membranes treated by plasma surface modification

Surface properties play a vita role in the functioning of a biomaterial. Cellular adherence and growth onto biomaterials can be enhanced in biomaterial modifications of their surface. In this work, the cell behaviour on chitosan membranes modified by argon and nitron-plasma treatments was investigat...
