Thermodynamic aspects of plant cell adhesion to polymer surfaces

A thermodynamic model of particle adhesion from a suspension onto a solid surface is used to predict the extent of adhesion of suspension-cultured Catharanthus roseus cells to the following polymer substrates: fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET),...

Zusammenfassung:A thermodynamic model of particle adhesion from a suspension onto a solid surface is used to predict the extent of adhesion of suspension-cultured Catharanthus roseus cells to the following polymer substrates: fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), sulphonated polystyrene (SPS), and glass. According to this model, the extent of adhesion is determined by the surface tensions of the plant cells, the polymer substrates, and the suspending liquid medium.
