Figure 6

Adhesion and proliferation of NIH-3T3 cells on the patterned surface. (a) SEM image of the patterned PTFE surface that was prepared by inkjet printing using a DOPA-C7 suspension as the ink. (b–d) Optical and fluorescence microscopy images of the selective adhesion of NIH-3T3 cells on the patterned surface (scale bar: 100 μm). (e) Magnified fluorescence microscopy image at the border between the DOPA-C7 layer and PTFE.
