Recent decades have seen a huge turn in implantology and biomaterial development towards regenerative medicine. The approach in orthopedic surgery is no longer to just replace damaged tissue by a passive implant that evokes the least possible interference with biological tissue, but rather to provide active stimulation and actuation. Fe-Pd ferromagnetic shape memory alloys are a promising new class of smart materials with a unique set of properties ideal for biomedical applications, including superelasticity, magnetically switchable strains and biocompatibility. In this study the latter was shown by in vitro experiments with NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, MCF 10A epithelial cells and HOB osteoblasts on vapor-deposited single crystalline Fe₇₀Pd₃₀ thin films and roughness graded polycrystalline splat-quenched samples. Proliferation, adhesion and morphology were assessed on substrates of different surface roughness and different adhesive coatings, such as fibronectin, laminin and poly-L-lysine, as well as RGD peptides.
