摘要
The application of nanotechnology to biotechnology has increased over the years. One particular area which potentially could benefit from this is cell and tissue engineering. Here we describe various different methods on preparing polymeric substrates and ultimately scaffolds with well-defined micro- and nanometric patterns. Specifically we used electron beam lithography to pattern cm(2) areas and transfer the formed topography by hot embossing. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
