Nanocrystalline diamond: In vitro biocompatibility assessment by MG63 and human bone marrow cells cultures

Abstract: Nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) has a great potential for prosthetic implants coating. Nevertheless, its biocompatibility still has to be better understood. To do so, we employed several materials characterization techniques (SEM, AFM, micro-Raman spectroscopy) and cell culture assays using MG63 osteoblast-like and human bone marrow cells. Biochemical routines (MTT assays, Lowry's method, ALP activity) supported by SEM and confocal microscopy characterization were carried out. We used silicon nitride (Si3N4) sub… Show more

“…As we could see from the result of the attachment and proliferation of MG63, the hydrophobic surface like NCD-o had dramatically promoting effect. Moreover the percentage of cells in S phase of mitosis on NCD-o surface significantly higher than other groups, the results correspond with previous findings 19) . The titanium surface modified with NCD -o not only had an obvious effect on cell proliferation, but also could promote the distribution to the osteoblast differentiation 20) , and the subsequent experiments would be continuing.…”

“…The B-NCD thin films have been subject to a great deal of attention due to their outstanding properties, remarkable hardness, optical transparency in a broad wavelength [31,32], high thermal conductivity [33] as well as biocompatibility [34,35]. Unlike the rough polycrystalline films with grain sizes above 500 nm, NCD films with typical grain sizes and surface roughness of less than 100 nm are relatively smooth showing properties close to single crystal diamond [36].…”

“…In addition, diamond also exhibits superior electronic properties (including high carrier mobility), large electrochemical potential window, low dielectric constant, controllable surface termination, and a high breakdown voltage. Furthermore, when considering the well-known combination of chemical inertness and high degree of biocompatibility [1], diamond became recently a promising candidate for applications like artificial photosynthetic water-splitting, where interfaces between a photo-electrode surface and a redox protein is of utterly importance [2].…”
