doi: 10.3390/ma16186086
Figure Lengend Snippet: Morphology of osteoblasts cultured on the surfaces of NiTi alloy in the initial state ( a , a’ , c , c’ , e , e’ ) and with a TiO 2 surface layer ( b , b’ , d , d’ , f , f’ ) for 24 h ( a , a’ , b , b’ ), 48 h ( c , c’ , d , d’ ) and 6 days ( e , e’ , f , f’ ). SEM images magnified ×60 ( a – f ), ×500 ( a’ – f’ ).
Article Snippet: The cells were grown in an osteoblast basal medium enriched with fetal bovine serum (50 mL/500 mL medium), ascorbic acid (0.5 mL/500 mL medium), GA-1000 (0.5 mL/500 mL medium) antibiotics (OGM Osteoblast Growtth Medium BulletKit, Lonza), in a humid atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO 2 at 37 °C.
