Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial metals and alloys for potential biomedical implants.
TL;DR: In this article, the development and manufacturing of antibacterial metal alloys containing various antibacterial agents were described in detail, including antibacterial stainless steel, titanium alloy, zinc and alloy, antibacterial magnesium alloy, and other antibacterial metals and alloys.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Cu content on the antibacterial activity of titanium–copper sintered alloys
TL;DR: It was concluded that the Cu content affects the Cu existence and the Cu ion release behavior, which in turn influences the antibacterial property.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the existing form of Cu element on the mechanical properties, bio-corrosion and antibacterial properties of Ti-Cu alloys for biomedical application
TL;DR: Ti-Cu alloys with different existing forms of Cu element prepared showed a higher hardness and mechanical strength as well as a higher antibacterial rate but a relatively lower corrosion resistance than pure titanium, and Ti2Cu phase played a key role in the antibacterial mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Cu content on the cell biocompatibility of Ti-Cu sintered alloys.
TL;DR: It has been shown by the AO/EB morphology results that the cell death on both cp-Ti sample and Ti-Cu samples is due to apoptosis rather than necrosis, and more apoptotic cells were found on the Ti-2Cu andTi-5Cu samples, no evidence of Cu content dependent manner of apoptosis has been found.
