Figure 8

Comparison of platelet and PDL cell adhesion after 1 h. (a) SEM images of adherent platelets on polymer surfaces. Top scale bars: 10 μm, bottom scale bars: 1.0 μm. Polymers: PET, PMEA, PHEMA, and PMPC. (b) Comparison of platelet and PDL cell adhesion after 1 h. Gray bar indicates platelet adhesion and white bar indicates PDL cell adhesion, respectively, relative to PET. Polymers: PET, PMEA, PHEMA, and PMPC. and versus PET, mean ± standard deviation, platelets: , PDL cells: .
