The application of atomic force microscopy in the surface analysis of polymeric biomaterials

When a polymeric biomaterial is employed within a living system an interface is created between the solid surface of the polymer and an aqueous environment. The processes that occur at this interface will determine if the biomaterial is accepted by the patient and often will determine if the specifi...
