Antibacterial effect of incorporating silver ions in electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite coating: An experimental study
نویسندگان
چکیده
XRD and EDX analyses confirmed the presence of Ag in all coatings deposited using electrochemical method and silver. The mean thickness coating was noted to be highest in EHA/AG group (102.20 4.20 um) followed by PHA (76.40 2.20 um). Mean coating thicknesses in other groups were: PHA/AgNO3 (76.20 1.29 um); EHA (32.98 2.50 um); EHA/ Ag/2-layers (30.70 2.40 um); EHA/AgNO3 (8.60 0.60 um). The average silver content measured was highest with 6.55% in EHA/Ag/2-layer followed by 3.92% in EHA/AgNO3, 0.38% in EHA/Ag and 0.10% in PHA/AgNO3. The electrochemical technique deposited a uniform coating onto the disc surface with clearly defined microcrystals as compared to the PHA-coated discs where the surface appeared smoother. The EHA coating, however, appeared less dense when compared with the PHA coating. DECLARATIONS

Next Generation Antibacterial Hydroxyapatite Coating: Antibacterial Activity of Ag Ions in Serum
We developed a novel thermal spraying technology for a silver-containing hydroxyapatite (Ag-HA) coating with antibacterial activity to reduce the incidence of implant-associated infections. In this study, we determined the concentration of Ag ions that show antibacterial activity in fetal bovine serum (FBS) and antibacterial activity of the Ag-HA coating in FBS. The minimum inhibitory concentra...
متن کاملThermal-sprayed Silver-containing Hydroxyapatite Coating in a Rat Femoral Model: Analysis of the Initial Fixation
Introduction: The degree of osseointegration determines the long-term survival and favorable outcomes of orthopedic implant use. Initial fixation is influenced by a number of factors. Hydroxyapatite (HA) coating has a good osteoconductive property and sealing effect on peri implant migration of particles that lead to osteolysis. Furthermore, HA-coated implants show desirable midterm clinical re...
متن کاملA prospective randomized study comparing electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite and plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite on titanium stems
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) is a successful coating for fixation of uncemented femoral stems. There may be alternative coatings with advantages in bone remodeling and transport of bone-active substances. We investigated whether an electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite, Bonemaster (BM), might be a safe alternative in total hip arthroplasty. Our hypothesis was t...

a r t i c l e i n f o The structure of an implant's coating can significantly affect its physical and chemical properties, and eventually – its clinical performance. In this paper, the nanostructure of an electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite (EDHA) coating was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTE...
متن کاملConstruction of antibacterial multilayer films containing nanosilver via layer-by-layer assembly of heparin and chitosan-silver ions complex.
Antibacterial multilayer films containing nanosilver were prepared via layer-by-layer fashion. PET film was aminolyzed with 1,6-hexanediamine to introduce amino groups on PET film surface; chitosan-silver nitrate complex and heparin were alternately deposited onto an aminolyzed PET film surface, and subsequently, the silver ions within the multilayer films were reduced with ascorbic acid to for...
