description | This article describes the modification conditions and properties of polymer films obtained using a solution of poly(ε-caprolactone) modified with arginine. We investigated the effects on the surface and biological properties of films created using various arginine concentrations and temperature conditions during the modification process. We found that both increasing the arginine concentration of the treatment solution or the temperature of the treatment reaction increased the arginine content of the film. Following a cellular cultivation period of 3 days, greater levels of cell proliferation were observed on all modified poly(ε-caprolactone) films compared to unmodified polymer films. Experiments using fluorescence microscopy showed that the modification conditions also had a significant effect on cellular spreading and the organization of the actin cytoskeleton following 2 h of cultivation. The degree of spreading and actin cytoskeleton organization observed in cells on these modified polymer films was superior to that of the control films. |
