title = "Collagen fibrillogenesis on Ti-6Al-4V-ELI",
abstract = "Collagen is a critical emerging biomaterial for use in drug delivery, for scaffolding for tissue regeneration, and for surgical purposes. This is due to its low antigenicity, as well as the fact that collagen is biodegradable and absorbable. This paper describes preliminary work on the deposition of fibronectin, type I collagen, and the globular domain of collagen type V/XI (V0) on Ti6Al4VELI via adsorption. Characterization of the early stages of fibrillogenesis via optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy are presented. Atomic force microscopy indicates that fibronectin was deposited; however, the deposition of the type I collagen and VO was not confirmed.",
