Effect of time and micropatterns on the behaviour of preosteoblastic cells

Abstract:
The influence of the micropatterning of surfaces (in relation to their spreading and morphology) on the behavior of osteoblasts on different surfaces was investigated. Micropatterns were seen to be etched into silicon plates by photolithograhy and coated with a 250 nm tantalum layer. The samples were analyzed by Cryo-SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) (CamScan MaXim 2040). The elongation of cells was observed to be faster on deep line patterns than on shallow line patterns.
