Surface functionalisation of nanodiamonds for human neural stem cell adhesion and proliferation

Abstract Biological systems interact with nanostructured materials on a sub–cellular level. These interactions may govern cell behaviour and the precise control of a nanomaterial's structure and surface chemistry allow for a high degree of tunability to be achieved. Cells are surrounded by an e...
