Controlled release of strontium ions from a bioactive Ti metal with a Ca-enriched surface layer.

TL;DR: The Ti formed with this kind of bioactive SrCT layer on its surface is expected to be highly useful for orthopedic and dental implants, since it should be able to promote bone growth by releasing Sr ions and tightly bond to the bone through the apatite formed on itssurface.

On the mechanisms of biocompatibility.

David F. Williams
- 01 Jul 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that, in the vast majority of circumstances, the sole requirement for biocompatibility in a medical device intended for long-term contact with the tissues of the human body is that the material shall do no harm to those tissues, achieved through chemical and biological inertness.
