The image shows the growth of osteoblasts (NHOst) on Titanium discs whose surface had been previously modified with an external recorder. After 48 hours of cultivation with GMO liquid supplemented medium, the NHOst were multilabeled with immunogold human-rhodamine-actin (red) and DAPI (blue); and preserved with Vectashield. The image was taken with an Olympus fluorescence microscope at 20 x Zoom, in CITIUS Sevilla.
