“…While, the average WCA of a droplet of positioned on PP-Cl coated substrate was in the range of 90±1°t hat was in good agreement with the literature values [66][67][68]. By introduction of either hydrophilic PCL-alkyne (determined as 65±1.5°) [69][70][71], or PEG-alkyne (determined as 42±1.9°) units on the PP-Cl backbone, the WCA values of corresponding graft copolymers were decreased down to 83±2.1° and 78±1.8°, respectively. The difference observed in the graft copolymers could be explained by the interaction of the polymer surface chains with the water.…”

“…There is, however, conflicting data in the literature regarding whether modified biodegradable polyesters can encourage cell adhesion and cell growth. 6,25 The aim of this study was to examine whether the surfaces of polyesters need to be modified to improve protein adhesion. Three polymers, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), PLA, and PGA were selected for the study on the basis of the reactivity of their ester group.…”

“…In addition, no variations in cell spreading were observed between the different biomaterials. Although the cells studied adhered less to the PLLA membranes when compared to PLGA, their proliferative capacity was better when grown on the PLLA membrane [59]. In addition, the production of cartilaginous matrix and type II collagen was found to be lower for human chondrocytes www.intechopen.com…”
