This study investigated the influence of surface wettability on competitive protein adsorption and the initial attachment of osteoblasts. A thin-film coating of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) and subsequent O(2)-plasma treatment was carried out on substrates with a mirror surface in order to

New data shed light on the mechanisms of film growth from low power, low pressure plasmas of organic compounds. These data rebalance the widely held view that plasma polymer formation is due to radical/neutral reactions only and that ions play

Over the years many techniques have been devised for the measurement of tissue oxygenation (oximetry). Oximetry using polarographic needle electrodes has long been considered a gold standard. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) based oximetry uses exogenously administered reporter molecules such as

The Hadamard transform-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HT-GC/MS) technique was successfully employed for the detection of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO, C(6)H(18)OSi(2)) at the sub-nL/L level in a semiconductor wafer cleanroom. Indoor air samples were collected from the room, according to EPA Method TO-17 using

The development of thermoplastic materials based on starch has become a promising alternative for reducing plastic waste. To this end, plasma treatments were used to enhance the hydrophobicity of cornstarch films. Cornstarch films plasticized using glycerol and distilled water were
