Self-assembling nanofiber network development on PTFE porous membranes. (A) SEM images of fiber formation of RAD16-I self-assembling peptide on unmodified PTFE membranes (top row) and plasma modified RAD16-I immobilized PTFE membranes, PTFE/PdPFM/RAD16-I membranes (bottom row) after incubation in absence (left column) or presence (right column) of soluble RAD16-I peptide. (B) Close up of a SEM image of a PTFE/PdPFM/RAD16-I membrane after incubation in presence of of soluble RAD16-I peptide.
