Tuning the Magnetoelectric Stimulation Method to Enhance Cell Proliferation in PVDF-based Nanocomposites
摘要
Abstract
A combination of materials such as a PVDF-based composite with 10 wt % CoFe2O4 nanoparticles and a method of ME stimulation of stem cells using a perpendicularly shifting low-frequency (0.3 Hz) magnetic field with a given amplitude are proposed. Optimal stimulation parameters—magnetic field strength, number of stimulations per day and duration—are systematically established to maximize the proliferation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells up to 30% confirmed by WST-1 analysis.
