## Abstract This article reports that surface modification of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) influences fibronectin (Fn) adsorption and enhances cell attachment. Controlled adsorption of Fn on chemically activated polymer substrates is known to influence cellular function. Thin films of PDMS were sp
## Abstract It was observed that fibronectin precipitates when deposited on hydroxyapatite (HA) ceramics. Fibronectin's known affinity for calcium and the composition of the ceramic itself suggested that calcium release could be the main cause of this aggregation effect. It was then decided to inve
