The biomodification of surfaces, especially titanium, is an important issue in current biomedical research. Regarding titanium, it is also important to ensure a specific protein modification of its surface because here protein binding that is too random can be observed. Specific nanoscale architectures can be applied to overcome this problem. As recently shown, streptavidin can be used as a coupling agent to immobilize biotinylated fibronectin (bFn) on a TiOX surface. Because of the conformation of adsorbed biotinylated fibronectin on a streptavidin monolayer, it is possible to adsorb more streptavidin and biotinylated fibronectin layers. On this basis, an alternating protein multilayer can be built up. In contrast to common layer-by-layer technology, in this procedure the mechanism of layer adsorption is very specific because of the interaction of biotin and streptavidin. In addition, we showed that the assembly of this multilayer system and its stability are dependent on the degree of labeling of biotinylated fibronectin. Hence we conclude that it is possible to build up well-defined nanoscale protein architectures by varying the degree of labeling of biotinylated fibronectin.
Protraction Effects in a Stochastic Cell-Cycle Tumor Model Exposed to Fractionated Radiotherapy

The adsorption of water on r-TiO2(110) has been investigated with thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) and helium atom scattering. Conventional TDS using a mass spectrometer and He-TDS monitoring reflected He beam intensity consistently show the existence of a structurally well-defined monolayer as well as a highly ordered second layer of water and a disordered multilayer phase. He diffraction patterns recorded along the high symmetry [001], equation image, and equation image directions reveal a well-ordered superstructure with (1x1) symmetry, providing strong evidence for the absence of a partially dissociated monolayer on the perfect parts of the substrate. No changes in the diffraction patterns are observed after irradiation with UV-light.
