The microstructure and mechanical properties of the turtle shell are very appealing to materials scientists and engineers for bio-mimicking, to obtain a multi-functional surface.
The results indicated the importance of properties such as charge transport and electrical conductivity, allowing for synthesis of complex, multi-functional surface constructions with multiple MOF films by EPD.
This same simple method can be used to obtain other multi-functional surfaces by co-immobilizing oligopeptides with different targeted bioactivities – cell recruitment and differentiation, biomineral nucleation, antimicrobial activity – and thus, further improving the clinical performance of titanium implants.
In this paper we show for the first time that the tumor biomarker PSMA, a multi-functional cell surface ectopeptidase [13], is endowed with an efficient signaling activity in prostate cancer cells.
Turned a washing machine drum into a coffee table using toughened frosted glass, castors and multi functional LED's.
Hand4help Hand4help is developing low-cost, multi functional, 3D-printed robotic hand prosthesis for amputees.
She leads a multi functional life and the clothing she wears should reflect that.
Moreover, each functional category included many functional surface proteins.
The mono-layered QDs play the multi-functional role as surface modifier, sub-photosensitizer and electron transport layer.
However, the multi-functional requirements of a surface defined at the design stage can be difficult to realise.
The films are multi-functional, since their hierarchical surface morphology provides a biomimetical anti-reflective, air-stable, and hydrophobic encapsulation for Si.
