                         engineering. The cell viability and adhesion of L929 mouse 
                         fibroblasts was investigated using two different colorimetric 
                         assays: (i) 
                         2-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-3,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide 
                         (MTT), and (ii) lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The films were growth 
                         on 316L stainless steel substrates using plasma enhanced chemical 
                         vapor deposition technique from a dispersion of TiO2 nanopowder in 
                         hexane. The increasing concentration of TiO2 nanoparticles in DLC 
                         films enhanced the mitochondrial activity and decreases the LDH 
                         activity on these samples. Fluorescence and scanning electron 
                         microscopy corroborate the results. These experiments show the 
                         potential use of DLC and TiO2-DLC films in biomedical
