Figure 10. Adsorption of collagen I to NCD films with 0, 133, 1000 or 6700 ppm of boron and polystyrene (PS).

A: Intensity of fluorescence after conjugation of collagen with Texas Red C₂-Maleimide; B: Biochemical analysis using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) combined with Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOF-MS). Mean ± S.E.M from 11–13 measurements (A) or 9 measurements (B) for each experimental group. ANOVA, Student-Newman-Keuls Method. Statistical significance: ^{I, II, III, IV}: p≤0.05 compared to the group labelled with the same Roman number.
