The anti-bacterial activity of titanium-copper sintered alloy against <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i> <i>in vitro </i>

Abstract: This study investigates the anti-bacterial property of Ti-Cu sintered alloys against Porphyromonas gingivalis. The anti-anaerobic property of Ti-Cu sintered alloys against P. gingivalis was investigated by antibacterial activity test, DNA measurement, DAPI staining and morphology observation. The antibacterial rates of the Ti-5Cu against P. gingivalis after 18 and 24 h incubation were 36.04 and 54.39%, and those of Ti-10Cu were 68.69 and 75.39%, which were lower than their anti-aerobic abilities. The concentra… Show more

“…In addition, as long as the Cu content in the Ti-Cu sintered alloy exceeds 5 wt%, a continuous and stable antibacterial effect can be obtained (Liu et al, 2014). It was effective against not only S. aureus and E. coli but also the common anaerobic bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis (Bai et al, 2016). The excellent antibacterial effects and good biocompatibility of the Ti-10Cu sintered alloy have been verified in a rabbit muscle infection model .…”

“…The present investigation focused on alloying up to 10 wt% of Cu into commercially pure titanium (a well-known implant material), where Cu has shown antibacterial potential in previous studies [17,20,38,39]. Its purpose was to determine the resultant microstructural and antibacterial characteristics of the materials, as a function of Cu addition and ageing heat treatments.…”

“…Recently, as a local drug delivery system, antibacterial nanomaterials to modify the tooth surface have been experimentally tested. Metallic nanoparticles showed significant antibacterial effects against oral bacterial cells through antibacterial metallic ion release [4,5,6]. Therapy comprising nanoparticle coating of tooth surfaces is likely beneficial for prevention and improvement of periodontal disease.…”
