A complex mechanism characterizes the water uptake kinetics in hydrogels, as a consequence of the strong structural changes occurring in the material during the sorption process. The water sorption involves the transformation of a glassy, moderately crosslinked polymer in a rubbery material. In this

## Abstract A wide array of technologies exist for the characterization and quantification of molecules present at surfaces. We have used several of these experimental and instrumental techniques for the analysis of a novel biomaterial surface. Osteopontin, an extracellular matrix molecule involved
## Abstract Because of the unique properties for swelling in a fluid medium and variable modulus of elasticity, hydrophilic methacrylates may be of potential usefulness for implanting prosthetic devices in bone. To investigate the biocompatibility, electron micrographic studies were done on specime
