Abstract
Surface modification, ie. improving or changing surface characteristics of biomaterials in a controlled way, has been attracting attention in biomaterials research because of the low cost and the versatility. Some applications of surface modifications, such as immobilization of albumin, heparin and poly(ethylene oxides) (PEO) on polymer surfaces, seeding of endothelial cells on blood vessels, forming of self-assembled monolayer model surfaces, binding of phospholipid polar group on dialysis membrane, etc., are discussed in the present paper. Some surface modification techniques and principles are also introduced. Investigations and synthesis of ceramic films, such as TiN, TaN, DLC, C-N, Ta doped TiO2, and TiO2-x films. are presented.
