abstract = "In this study, we report the production of amine functionalized nanodiamond. The aminefunctionalized nanodiamond forms a conformal monolayer on a negatively charged surfaceproduced via plasma polymerization of acrylic acid. Nanodiamond terminated surfaces werestudied as substrates for neuronal cell culture. NG108-15 neuroblastoma-glyoma hybridcells were successfully cultured upon amine functionalized nanodiamond coated surfaces forbetween 1 and 7 d. Additionally, primary dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and Schwanncells isolated from Wistar rats were also successfully cultured over a period of 21 d illustratingthe potential of the coating for applications in the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.",
