Abstract

The effect of doping P3OT with ferric chloride on the attachment and proliferation of MC3T3‐E1 osteoblasts is reported. Cell density and area correlated strongly with doping concentration: cells were larger and exhibited better spreading as doping increased. Cells cultured on undoped P3OT showed a decrease in proliferation between 24 and 48 h followed by a recovery after 72 h. However, this trend diminished with increasing doping concentration, and disappeared completely at the highest dopant level investigated. Analysis of cell‐cell spatial distributions suggested that contact inhibition of proliferation occurred similarly on both undoped and doped P3OT. From these results, FeCl~3~‐doping had no significant deleterious effect on attachment or proliferation of osteoblasts in vitro.

## Abstract In this study we assessed the suitability of semiconducting P3OT thin films (30 nm) to sustain attachment, spreading, and proliferation of MC3T3‐E1 osteoblasts. Cell area correlated with surface wettability: area was larger on the more hydrophilic surface (TCPS) and lower on the more hy

## Abstract As certain proteins control cell adhesion, it has been hoped that cell transplantation and tissue engineering could be augmented by pre‐adsorption of specific proteins to biological or synthetic surfaces. The questions that remain, however, are whether such proteins can affect cell prod
