Abstract

The adhesion and growth of tissue cells on polymers prepared by radiation grafting was investigated. The apparent rates of initial attachment and growth of Chang liver and C6 cells were promoted on surfaces with increased wettability and with a heterogeneous structure for grafted polyvinyl fluoride film. The degree of cell attachment and growth on surfaces having a dense microblock structure, formed by grafting of methyl methacrylate in acetone solvent, was greater than that caused by other factors, such as wettability.
