Figure 8. — A working model of wetting conditions for attachment of human skeletal myoblasts to PLGA TIPS microspheres. PLGA TIPS microspheres incubated with various concentrations of ethanol (EtOH: 35%–70% (v/v)) and serum proteins (FBS:2–20%) allow the attachment of different numbers of skeletal myoblasts. The number of attached cells increase as the amount of serum protein exposed to microspheres is elevated. Microspheres that are partially wetted (35% EtOH) and incubated with high serum concentrations (20% FBS) allow attachment of similar numbers of cells as microspheres wetted (70% EtOH) under low-serum (2% FBS) conditions.
