Poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) is widely used in drug delivery and medical implants. Surface modification of PLLA with functional groups to immobilize gelatin or other extracellular matrix proteins is commonly used to improve its cellular affinity. In this work, we use the oxygen plasma to treat PLLA fi...
