Self-assembling nanofiber network development on PEEK-WU-PC membranes. SEM images of fiber formation of RAD16-I self-assembling peptide on unmodified PEEK-WC-PU membranes (top row), plasma-deposited acrylic acid PEEK-WC-PU membranes, PEEK-WC-PU/PdAA (middle row), and plasma-modified RAD16-immobilized PEEK-WC-PU membranes, PEEK-WC-PU/PdAA/RAD16-I (bottom row), after incubation in absence (left column) or presence (right column) of soluble RAD16-I peptide.
