Antibacterial, cytotoxicity and physical properties of laser — Silver doped hydroxyapatite layers

Calcium orthophosphate deposits: Preparation, properties and biomedical applications

“…For example, let us consider deposition of CaPO 4 doped by various metals. Ag-doped CaPO 4 were put down using sol-gel [701,702] and electrophoretic [703] deposition, magnetron sputtering [704,705], thermal [706], plasma [707] and cold [708] spraying, IBAD [709], PLD [710] and thermal substrate [711] techniques, while CaPO 4 doped with Sr [437,712], Zn [713] and Si [437,714] were deposited using a biomimetic technique. …”

Development of nanosized silver-substituted apatite for biomedical applications: A review

“…With a higher silver content in the AgHA-IE nanocoatings, fewer cells were observed to attach and spread onto the nanocoatings. 56,96 Titanium implants electrosprayed with AgHA-IE nanocoatings containing 5.5 wt.% of silver were inserted into rabbits. 59 Healthy cortical osteons were observed on AgHA-IE coated implants without cellular inflammation after six weeks.…”

Development of plasma electrolytic oxidation for improved Ti6Al4V biomaterial surface properties

“…The abovementioned nano-and micro-surface layers obtained by the EP, MEP, HDEP, and PEO (MAO) treatments are often formed on biomaterials for their improved biocompatibility [19]. In addition, in some of the operations of PEO/MAO, a special effort is taken for the surface layers to be enriched in the chemical elements like silver and/or copper, which are bactericidal [20][21][22][23][24].…”
