a Fluorescent micrographs of live/dead stained cells, b cell area analysis, and c cell density analysis, of cell adhesion to DM50CO50 and RGD-modified surfaces in serum-containing media for 3 h, with or without EDTA treatment. d Fluorescent micrographs, e cell area analysis, and f cell density analysis, of cell adhesion to DM50CO50 and RGD-modified surfaces in serum-free media for 3 h, with or without EDTA treatment. g Cell adhesion mechanisms of DM50CO50 and RGD-modified surfaces in different conditions. Data in (b, c, e, f) represent mean ± s.d. (n = 9). Statistical analysis: two-tailed t-test, ***p < 0.0001, ns = not significant.
