Interaction of Cells with Organic-Inorganic Nanocomposite Coatings for Titanium Implants

In order to evaluate the biocompatibility and bioactivity of recently described nanocomposite coatings, consisting of polyelectrolyte multilayers interspersed with calcium apatite crystals, extensive cell culture tests have been applied to coated and uncoated chemically etched titanium plates. The coatings had top calcium phosphate layers (PLL/PGA)10CaP[(PLL/PGA)5CaP]4 (A) or top polyelectrolyt...

Organic-Inorganic Hydrophobic Nanocomposite Film with a Core-Shell Structure

A method to prepare novel organic-inorganic hydrophobic nanocomposite films was proposed by a site-specific polymerization process. The inorganic part, the core of the nanocomposite, is a ternary SiO₂-Al₂O₃-TiO₂ nanoparticles, which is grafted with methacryloxy propyl trimethoxyl silane (KH570), and wrapped by fluoride and siloxane polymers. The synthesized samples are characterized by transmis...

UV-Curable Aliphatic Silicone Acrylate Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Coatings with Antibacterial Activity.

The most effective means to protect against bacterial invasion and to reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections are antibacterial components synthesis. In this study, a novel process for the synthesis of organic-inorganic hybrid coatings containing silver nanoparticles is presented. Silver nanoparticles and polymer formation proceeds simultaneously through the in situ photoreduction o...
