“…Despite these advances, almost all ultrathin and conventional membranes are made of synthetic materials with physical, chemical, and biological properties different from their biological analogs 2,12,14 . Remedies that compensate for this difference include membrane preincubation with cell culture media, extracellular matrix (ECM) coating, and plasma treatment 2,13,15,20,21 . Plasma treatment can be a more reproducible and effective method compared to other techniques to improve the biocompatibility of porous membranes [22][23][24] .…”
