Abstract

Solid (smooth) and porous films of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) have been obtained; the effect of their structure on the adhesion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on their surface was found. It is shown that modification of these films with a (chitosan/pectin)4 multilayer increased the efficiency of viable cell adhesion. A (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane–glutaraldehyde system was used to enhance the binding of the polysaccharide layer to the hydrophobic surface of PDMS. It was found that MSCs formed a monolayer culture of the fibroblast-like cells with high viability on porous PDMS modified with (chitosan/pectin)4.
