Biological roles and delivery strategies for ions to promote osteogenic induction
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-14)
Bone is the most studied tissue in the field of tissue regeneration. Even though it has intrinsic capability to regenerate upon injury, several pathologies and injuries could hamper the highly orchestrated ...
Synthesis and deposition of silver nanoparticles on cp Ti by laser ablation in open air for antibacterial effect in dental implants
(Elsevier, 2018-07-30)
Silver nanoparticles have been synthetized and deposited on cp Ti substrates in one-step process by the use of laser ablation in open air. The nanoparticles are produced by ablating Ag foil using two ...
All-in-one trifunctional strategy: a cell adhesive, bacteriostatic and bactericidal coating for titanium implants
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
Strategies to inhibit initial bacterial adhesion are extremely important to prevent infection on biomaterial surfaces. However, the simultaneous attraction of desired eukaryotic cells remains a challenge ...
Early short-term postoperative mechanical failures of current ceramic-on-ceramic bearing total hip arthroplasties
(MDPI, 2020)
Although ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearings have been shown to produce the smallest amount of wear volume in vitro as well as in vivo studies when used for total hip arthroplasties (THA), concerns about ...
Installing multifunctionality on titanium with RGD-decorated polyurethane-polyurea roxithromycin loaded nanoparticles: toward new osseointegrative therapies
(Wiley, 2015)
A novel class of polyurethane-polyurea nanoparticles (PUUa NPs) to install multifunctionality on biomaterials is presented. Biofunctionalization of titanium with roxithromycin loaded RGD-decorated PUUa ...
Antibiotic-loaded polypropylene surgical meshes with suitable biological behaviour by plasma functionalization and polymerization
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
Hernia repair is one of the most common operations in general surgery, and its associated complications typically relate to infections, among others. The loading of antibiotics to surgical meshes to ...
Biofunctionalization strategies on tantalum-based materials for osseointegrative applications
(Springer Nature, 2015)
The use of tantalum as biomaterial for orthopedic applications is gaining considerable attention in the clinical practice because it presents an excellent chemical stability, body fluid resistance, ...
Development of tantalum scaffold for orthopaedic applications produced by space-holder method
(Elsevier, 2015-10-15)
In the present study, production of tantalum porous scaffolds using the space holder technique was performed. The effect of size and content of sodium chloride particles, used as space holder, as well ...
Mimicking bone extracellular matrix: integrin-binding peptidomimetics enhance osteoblast-like cells adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation on titanium
(Elsevier, 2015-04-01)
Interaction between the surface of implants and biological tissues is a key aspect of biomaterials research. Apart from fulfilling the non-toxicity and structural requirements, synthetic materials are ...
Biofunctionalization with a TGFβ-1 inhibitor peptide in the osseointegration of synthetic bone grafts: an in vivo study in beagle dogs
(MDPI, 2019-09-27)
Objectives: The aim of this research was to determine the osseointegration of two presentations of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) biomaterial—one untreated and another submitted to biofunctionalization ...
