## Abstract In this study, we investigated the suitability of microjet impingement for use on hydrogel materials to determine the cellular adhesion strength of corneal epithelial cells grown on novel hydrogels with extracellular matrix proteins (laminin and/or fibronectin) or a peptide sequence (fi

## Abstract In this study, we investigated the corneal epithelial cell growth rate and adhesion to novel hydrogels with (1) extracellular matrix proteins [fibronectin, laminin, substance P, and insulinโlike growth factorโ1 (IGFโ1)] and (2) peptide sequences [RGD and fibronectin adhesionโpromoting p

## Abstract A major consideration in designing dental implants is the creation of a surface that provides strong attachment between the implant and bone, connective tissue, or epithelium. In addition, it is important to inhibit the adherence of oral bacteria on titanium surfaces exposed to the oral
