Abstract

Micro- and nano-structured surfaces of scaffold materials have important effects on cells' adhesion and proliferation. Nano-structured surfaces can improve cells' adhesion and biocompatibility of materials. The effects of nano-biomaterials on the development of tissue engineering and the methods of preparation of nano-biomaterials such as molecular self-assemble and template technology are discussed.
