heal.abstract	The adsorption of collagen and the morphology of its assemblies at solid surfaces play an important role in a variety of research areas and applications, such as biomaterials, biocompatibility, tissue mechanics and cell studies. In this paper the nanoscale organization of type I collagen on polystyrene particle surfaces with controlled patterns was investigated by high-resolution atomic force microscopy. The results showed that patterned surfaces with a well-ordered morphology could be formed by spin coating polystyrene particles dispersions (20 sec at 1000 rpm) and appropriate annealing conditions (at 90°C for 2h). Collagen thin films consisting of fibers with natural characteristics, such as the typical 67nm periodicity (D-band), were formed on these nano-patterns. This kind of surfaces provides a useful substrate for studying the regulation of collagen assembly on substrates with different nano-topographical and environmental conditions and offers a potential way to create surfaces of functionalized and nano-patterend materials for biotechnological and biomedical applications. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.	en
