Abstract

We report a strategy for the fabrication of tailored electroactive nanorod substrates for biospecific studies of cell adhesion and stem cell differentiation; to control the interfacial properties of the nanorods we formed self-assembled monolayers of an electroactive hydroquinone group that is able to chemoselectively immobilize oxyamine tethered ligands.
