Biomimetic surfaces exhibiting extreme wettability properties for tissue engineering applications

Surfaces exhibiting hierarchical topographic organization, from the nano to the micro scale, may present extreme wettability properties, ranging from (lotus-like) superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic behaviour. Such surfaces may be used as innovative substrates to infer cell behaviour and protein ad...
