Ultrasound-mediated piezoelectric differentiation of neuron-like PC12 cells on PVDF membranes
Abstract Electrical and/or electromechanical stimulation has been shown to play a significant role in regenerating various functionalities in soft tissues, such as tendons, muscles, and nerves. In this work, we investigate the piezoelectric polymer polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as a potential subst...
