Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradable magnesium alloys for orthopaedic applications: A review on corrosion, biocompatibility and surface modifications
TL;DR: It was found that inclusion of alloying elements such as Al, Mn, Ca, Zn and rare earth elements provides improved corrosion resistance to Mg alloys and surface modification is a promising approach to improve the performance of Mg-based biomaterials for orthopaedic applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced corrosion protection and biocompatibility of a PLGA–silane coating on AZ31 Mg alloy for orthopaedic applications
Sankalp Agarwal,M.M. Morshed,Marie-Noëlle Labour,David A. Hoey,David A. Hoey,Brendan Duffy,James F. Curtin,Swarna Jaiswal +7 more
TL;DR: The coated substrate showed improved cytocompatibility as compared to the uncoated AZ31 alloy surface and served as a potential delivery vehicle for specific drugs and bio-active molecules releasing from an implant surface as the coatings adapt during the corrosion process, thereby enhancing bone regeneration.
Book ChapterDOI
Synthesis, characterization, and applications of nanobiomaterials for antimicrobial therapy
TL;DR: Nanobiomaterials are considered as new “magic bullets” in the area of antimicrobial therapeutics due to their appreciable biocompatibility with broad spectrum and long-lasting antimicrobial properties for combating microbial infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomimetic Hyaluronic Acid-Lysozyme Composite Coating on AZ31 Mg Alloy with Combined Antibacterial and Osteoinductive Activities
TL;DR: This study presents the covalent grafting of a hyaluronic acid-lysozyme (HA-LZ) composite onto corrosion-resistant silane-coated AZ31 Mg alloy via EDC-NHS coupling reactions, and shows that such multifunctional composite coatings with antibacterial and osteoinductive properties are promising can be potentially used for the surface modifications of orthopedic implants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra-small gold nanoparticles synthesized in aqueous solution and their application in fluorometric collagen estimation using bi-ligand functionalization
TL;DR: In this article, an effective, rapid and facile hydrosol approach was developed to synthesize monodisperse ultra-small gold nanoparticles (∼2 nm) using lithium borohydride (LiBH4) as a reducing agent.
