Project description

The aim of the project is to apply 'Quartz Crystal Microbalance' (QCM) to study and optimise the efficiency of the coating process of biomaterials. The interaction of various biomaterials with protein and polyaccharides will be studied. This study should enable us to optimise these processes.
