Surface functionalization with SAMs can increase the contact-separation charge of PDMS layers by three orders magnitude. The effect SAM be matched roughness to enhance density.

Bioceramic scaffolds such as silicate bioceramics have been widely used for bone tissue engineering. However, their high degradation rate, low mechanical strength and surface instability are main challenges compromising their bioactivity and cytocompatibility which further negatively affect the cell growth and attachment. In this study, we have investigated the effects of silk fibroin coating o...
