✦ Synopsis


The adhesion of baby hamster kidney 21C/13 fibroblasts to surfaces of passivated titanium, carbon fibers, bioactive glasses B5 and B6, fibronectin-precoated passivated titanium, and fibronectin-precoated B6 was quantified. The order of adhesive cell avidity for the uncoated surfaces was passivated titanium (greatest), B6 and carbon fibers (intermediate), and B5 (least). Precoating with fibronectin enhanced the adhesive characteristics of fibroblasts on passivated titanium and B6 by 74% and 118%, respectively.
