[Refit of simple plasma generator].
A simple plasma generator was refitted on the basis of usual ion sputter in biological labs, and uniformity of plasma intensity was verified. Bacteriological dishes were used as an example of material surface modification. The results showed that bacteriological dishes were switched from hydrophobic to hydrophilic after plasma treatment, and they obtained the ability to support cells adhesion and spreading. This demonstrated that the refitted ion sputter can be used as an effective plasma generator for biomaterial surface engineering.
