Abstract:
The development of suitable biomaterials is key to the progress of biomedical engineering. Plasma deposition is a versatile and waste free technique that can be used to produce surfaces with well denied chemical and physical properties. In this mini-review we show how well-characterised plasma deposited organic films have been used to screen and identify optimum substrate properties for several different biomedical applications. By providing as an example the plasma deposited poly oxazolines, we demonstrate the generation of advances biomaterial surfaces capable of limiting biofilm formation, guiding stem cell differentiation and even sensing cancer cells in urine.
