Cell adhesion to oligonucleotide-coated diX AM surfaces in FCS containing medium under dynamic conditions. Samples were incubated with 0,05 * 106 cells for 1 h in corresponding medium containing FCS. (a): Scale bar equals 200 μm. (b): Number of adhered cells per mm2 was counted in microscopy images ( ). Groups marked with * are significantly different to HEPES and diX AM samples ( ).
