Biomaterial surfaces play a crucial role in medicine and biology, since most of the biological reactions occurring in vivo take place at surfaces and interfaces. As an example, when biomaterials are implanted, protein adsorption on the foreign surface occurs immediately. In protein-surface interactions a variety of governing factors have to be considered in defining the role of the solid-solution interface. Among them, surface charge, surface roughness, absorbed ions, surface composition, surface energy etc., are determined by the physical state of the material

Abstract
Biomaterial surfaces play a crucial role in medicine and biology, since most of the biological reactions occurring in vivo take place at surfaces and interfaces. As an example, when biomaterials are implanted, protein adsorption on the foreign surface occurs immediately. In protein-surface interactions a variety of governing factors have to be considered in defining the role of the solid-solution interface. Among them, surface charge, surface roughness, absorbed ions, surface composition, surface energy etc., are determined by the physical state of the materialFile in questo prodotto:
