Abstract Cell-based biosensors have become a research hotspot in the biosensors and bioelectronics fields.
The main feature of cell-based biosensors is immobilization of living cells on the surface of transducers. Different
types of polymers which are used as scaffolds for cell growth should be biocompatible and should have reactive functional groups for further attachment of biomolecules. In this work, cell attachment and proliferation
on chitosan hydrogel, chitosan-gelatin and gold nanoparticle-chitosan nanocomposite membranes was studied. Characterization of the membranes was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Cytotoxicity assessment on HEK293 cells was carried out for all… More >
