| Abstract: | Radiation
induced grafting of acrylic acid (AA) and binary mixture of acrylic acid/N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) has been
carried out on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabric. The grafted fabrics
are immobilized with collagen via carbodiimide coupling to make the fabric
bioreceptive and biocompatible for cell seeding and grafts. Atomic force
microscopy and scanning electron microscopy observations suggest that the
collagen has a very similar structure on PET-g-AA/NVP and PET-g-AA.
After immobilizing collagen, PET induces growth and proliferation of 3T3 mouse
fibroblasts as compared to virgin PET. The results indicate that collagen
immobilized PET-g-AA fabric shows
better adhesion and proliferation than PET-g-AA/NVP
fabric. |
