Cytotoxicity of Free versus Multilayered Polyelectrolytes [PDF]

Biomacromolecules, 2011
The cytotoxicity of polyelectrolytes commonly employed for layer-by-layer deposition of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMUs) was assessed using rat smooth muscle A7r5 and human osteosarcoma U-2 OS cells. Cell growth, viability, and metabolic assays were used to compare the responses of both cell lines to poly(acrylic acid), PAA, and poly(allylamine ...
