Micropatterning of cells via adjusting surface wettability using plasma treatment and graphene oxide deposition

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
The wettability of a polymer surface plays a critical role in cell-cell interaction and behavior. The degree to which a surface is hydrophobic or hydrophilic affects the adhesion and behavior of cells.
