Abstract
Cell adhesion behaviors on thin synthetic and natural rubbers supported on solid substrates were examined. When the film was thinner than 60 nm, the adhesion of L929 fibroblasts was clearly promoted. This can be explained in terms of the manifestation of mechanical response from the hard solid substrate. Protein-free natural rubber exhibited better performance than polyisoprene as a scaffold.
