heal.abstract Collagen is the most abundant extracellular matrix protein and is important for a variety of functions, including tissue scaffolding, cell adhesion, cell migration, angiogenesis, tissue morphogenesis and tissue repair. Collagen is considered as one of the most useful biomaterials since it is hydrophilic, exhibits negligible cytoxicity, good hemostatic properties and is readily available and biocompatible. As the majority of the biological reactions occurs on surfaces or interfaces it is of great importance to nanostructure the collagen thin film. These films are useful to address a variety of biological issues, including cell morphology and the influence of surface properties on intacellural signaling and can be used to cover non-biological surfaces offering them biocompatibility. In this paper thin films of collagen were formed and according to the used methodology different collagen structures were created. The atomic force microscopy enabled the observation of the different patterns and the measurement of specific surface characteristics. Additionally, the AFM tip was used to nanomanipulate the collagen structure in the air. The AFM topographs showed that differently nanostructured collagen films were formed with pre-determided characteristics. These films can be used to direct cellular processes in a variety of research and later medical applications. © 2010 International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering. en
