Evaluation of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate Modified Collagen Membrane and Concerns on Schwann Cells

Figure 2

SEM images of the morphologies of RSC96 cells adhered to collagen membrane surfaces treated with 0% EGCG (a), 0.0064% EGCG (b), 0.064% EGCG (c), and 0.64% EGCG (d) after 24 h. 0.064% EGCG-collagen showed better morphology of RSC96 cells among the experimental groups, indicating higher cell proliferation. The black arrows indicate the cell-surface adhesion.
