Research was carried out on the use of ceramics as supports to host mammalian cells. The research was part of a programme whose priority was to study the possibility of using ceramics in the non-traditional sector of the biomedical field. The aim of the study was also to verify the suitability of particular types of ceramics dealt with in the literature for these applications. Among the different samples tested the cordieritic one proved to be very interesting, at least in relation to the cellular cultures considered. The chemical composition of the material is not, however, the only important aspect, since other parameters concur to make the hosting of cells highly acceptable. Of particular importance is the rugosity and porosity of the surface and its flaking, not only externally, but also in the pores.
