TLDR
It is found that increasing surface roughness and surface energy enhanced the macrophage viability and the albumin:fibrinogen adsorption ratio, and the higher the hydrogen content for a-C:Hs deposited by PACVD, the lower the banding ratios, and Macrophage attachment.

Structure and reactivity of water at biomaterial surfaces

TL;DR: It is found that solvent properties of water within the interphase separating a solid surface from bulk water solution vary with contacting surface chemistry, and this interphase can extend tens of nanometers from a water-contacting surface due to a propagation of differences in self association between vicinal water and bulk-phase water.
