Abstract
The development of a calcium phosphate (CP) coating technique on tissue culture poly(styrene) (TCPS) is important in biomedical fields. In this study, the CP hybridized with l-α-phosphatidylcholine phospholipid vesicle (PV) was formed on TCPS as the film state for suggesting the unique CP/PV hybrid films. The film formation was conducted by the following two different processes: (i) the CP deposited on PV was prepared in a simulated body fluid (SBF) and subsequently casted on TCPS to form the films, and (ii) the CP was precipitated in SBF on the pre-prepared PV films on TCPS. These films were denoted as “CP/PV-Bef” and “CP/PV-Aft” films. The stability of the CP/PV hybrid films against the sterilization processes (ethanol, UV/ozone, and autoclave treatments) and subsequent immersion process in a phosphate buffer saline (PBS) was also demonstrated. As a result, the CP/PV hybrid films were successfully coated on TCPS through the mediation by PV with preserving the vesicle structure. The morphologies and phys...
