Exposure of surfaces to ions of known mass and composition presents a highly specific approach for surface modification and preparation of novel materials. (pnnl.gov)
A similar approach could be used to produce an assortment of nanoparticles with a variety of surface modifications designed to control the functions of stem cells in different tissues. (sciencedaily.com)
Robust attachment of biological molecules to the bio-device surface is required to achieve this, as enabled by unique surface modification processes developed by Professor Bilek. (sciencedaily.com)
