Biochemistry tuned by nanopillars

Abstract

Surface engineering using nanopillars has been used for the fabrication of antimicrobial surfaces, cell culture environments that mimic the extracellular environment, and biosensors for the characterization of biomolecules. In this mini review, we summarize the roles of surface topography on various biochemical processes played by tunable nanopillars.
