摘要
Poly （3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene） （PEDOT）, together with its dopes, such as poly （styrene sulfonate） （PSS）, has been acknowledged to have a wide range of biomedical applications as an important conducting polymer. In this study, gelatin can be polymerized into PEDOT/PSS polymers on indium tin oxide （ITO）-coated glass. PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO-coated glass significantly decreases electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） and increases charge delivery capacity relative to the gelatin layer and bare ITO- coated glass, comparable to the PEDOT/PSS layer on ITO-coated glass. PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO- coated glass enhances pheochromocytoma （PC 12） cell affinity, possesses a high biocompatibility and promotes PC 12 cell growth by delivery of electrical stimulation. These results suggest that gelatin can be incorporated into the PEDOT/PSS polymers through electrochemical polymerization and the PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO-coated glass possesses high electrochemical and biological activities.
