In this study, we present and validate a new methodology for quantification of protein adsorption on to a three-dimensional polymer scaffold from unitary and binary systems, using fluorescence molecular tomography, an optical trans-illumination technique with picomolar sensitivity. In additional to being able to follow behavior of two proteins simultaneously, this methodology is also suitable for studying protein uptake in cells situated in a polymer environment. The ability to follow protein adsorption/uptake in a continuous manner opens up new possibilities to study the role of serum proteins in biomaterial compatibility.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2017.05.021} (DOI).
