Effect of synthesis variables of plasma synthesized polymers on growth of HepG2 cells

Low pressure plasma polymer films were synthesized using pyrrole and allylamine monomers and adding iodine was used (or not) for the reaction in both cases. They were polymerized on glass substrates under the same reaction conditions. Polymerization of allylamine was also studied at different operat...

Description
Summary:Low pressure plasma polymer films were synthesized using pyrrole and allylamine monomers and adding iodine was used (or not) for the reaction in both cases. They were polymerized on glass substrates under the same reaction conditions. Polymerization of allylamine was also studied at different operating powers. These thin polymer films were used as culture surfaces for HepG2 cells, a cell line derived from a human hepatoma. The proliferation, differentiation and two-dimensional propagation until obtaining monolayer of the cells was studied on the different synthetized films and correlations were established between the conditions of synthesis, the physicochemical characteristics obtained and the performance as substrates for the cellular growth.
