Abstract
Biocompatible composites comprising peptide amphiphiles and surface modified substrates and related methods for attachment thereon.
Claims7
A nanotextured biocompatible composite, comprising a biocompatible substrate and a mineral phase on said substrate comprising a calcium phosphate component, nanofibers of peptide amphiphiles, and poly(L-lysine), wherein said nanofibers are coupled to the poly(L-lysine) on said calcium phosphate component.
