Abstract
Titanium has been a successful implant material owing to its excellent strength to weight ratio, toughness, and bioinert oxide surface. Significant progress has been made on the improvement of titanium's bioactivity by coating its oxide surface with calcium phosphates and bioactive molecules. Here, we report on the coating of titanium with a poly(L-lysine)-calcium phosphate hybrid material with a nanoscale texture. This hybrid coating was grown by first nucleating seed crystals of calcium phosphate, directly on the Ti surface and then exposing this surface to solutions containing Ca(2+), PO(4)(3-), and poly(L-lysine). The resultant hybrid coating was characterized by electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. This material contained 14% by weight poly(L-lysine), and this organic component decreased greatly the dimensions of the surface features, thus enhancing surface area relative to the inorganic control. The highly textured hybrid material was more susceptible than the control to acidic and enzymatic degradation. The amino acid cysteine was covalently linked to the hybrid material, demonstrating the potential of this coating for further functionalization. These hybrid coatings may prove useful in enhancing the bioactivity of titanium.

Abstract
Upon implantation, calcium phosphate (Ca-P) surfaces form on materials that are bone bioactive. In this study, the evolving surface characteristics associated with calcium phosphate precipitation are modeled using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), in a one-step nucleation process. SAMs were used to create amine (-NH2), carboxyl (-COOH) and hydroxyl (-OH) functionalized surfaces by grafting 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-triethoxysilylpropyl succinic anhydride and glycidoxypropyl tri-methoxysilane, respectively, onto oxidized silicon wafers. The SAM surfaces were characterized using ellipsometry to establish the presence of grafted molecules. On the surfaces incubated in simulated physiological fluids for 7 days, the thickness of Ca-P layer grew slowly over the first few hours, increasing strongly between 1 and 5 days and then slowed down again. FTIR showed the dependence of calcium phosphate morphology on the type of surface groups, with stronger P-O bands seen on the OH-terminated surface. SEM analysis showed dispersed Ca-P precipitates on the -COOH and -OH terminated surfaces after 1 day immersion. After 7 days, all SAM surfaces were covered with uniformly dispersed and denser Ca-P precipitates. The underlying Ca-P layer showed cracks on the -NH2-terminated surface. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) data analysis confirmed that Ca/P ratio is in excellent agreement with the theoretical value of 1.67 for hydroxyapatite. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis also showed evidence of apatite formation on all the surfaces, with stronger evidence on the -OH-terminated surface. Highly porous Ca-P precipitates were observed on the SAM surfaces portrayed by the AFM scans with nanoscale RMS roughness. Thus, using highly controlled surface chemistry, under physiological conditions, in vitro, this study demonstrates that a hydroxylated surface enhances Ca-P nucleation and growth relative to other surfaces, thereby supporting the concept of its beneficial effect on bone tissue formation and growth.

Abstract
This article reports an electrochemical method to activate titanium surface for biomimetic calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coatings. Titanium serving as cathode was treated in an electrochemical cell with a supersaturated calcium and phosphate solution serving as electrolyte. This treatment generated a gel-like film with thickness of about 100 nm on the titanium surface. The amorphous film was composed by calcium and phosphate ions and contained a large number of crystal nuclei of octacalcium phosphate (OCP). The effectiveness of this novel treatment was demonstrated by comparing the behavior of treated and untreated titanium when used for biomimetic coating. A uniform Ca-P coating was formed on the treated titanium after immersion for several hours in aqueous solution. This work explored a new method to activate surfaces of metal implants for osseointegration, which is considerably faster than treatments currently in use, such as alkaline treatment.

Abstract
Coating porous titanium with calcium phosphate (Ca-P) is an effective way to enhance titanium's osteoinduction capability. This study investigated the effectiveness of two coating methods: biomimetic deposition (BD) and electrochemical deposition (ED) in aqueous solutions. The titanium surfaces were treated by acidic etching and alkaline before coating. Effects of the pre-coating treatments on Ca-P coating were also investigated. Both deposition methods could produce Ca-P coatings on the inner pore surfaces of the titanium. The BD coatings were thicker and more uniform than were the ED coatings. On the other hand, ED was less sensitive to the condition of the titanium surface, and much faster in the coating deposition. However, ED produces less uniform and thinner coating layers on the inner pore surfaces of the titanium than does BD. The crystal structure of the coating is octacalcium phosphate (OCP) regardless of the deposition method. The morphology of flake-like OCP crystals in the deposition layers is similar for both deposition methods, except that the crystal flakes rupture after ED.

Abstract
The influence of the spontaneous surface modification of titanium by exposure to Ringer's solution at open-circuit conditions on the passive behavior was studied. The electrochemical behavior of Ti was compared in a simple NaCl and in Ringer's physiological solution. Potentiodynamic polarization curves show significantly higher passive current densities in Ringer's solution as compared with the simple saline solution. Furthermore, impedance spectra measured at the open-circuit potential as a function of time indicate that in saline solution a long-term exposure over some days leads to a strong increase of the protectiveness of the passive film. This improvement of the passive behavior cannot be observed in Ringer's solution, but a strong modification of the passive film/electrolyte interface can be seen in the impedance spectra. The changes in the impedance spectra can be correlated with the results observed by surface characterization regarding the morphology (scanning electron microscopy) and chemical composition of the surface (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy). In agreement with previous work by others, a spontaneous modification of the surface of Ti by Ca and P species was observed. The composition of the Ca/P precipitates changes as a function of time, indicating a slow formation of a hydroxyapatite-like deposit layer on the surface. The results of the present work indicate that the formation of the outer Ca-P deposit layer on the passive Ti surface (which is beneficial for the biological performance) hinders the normal aging of the passive TiO(2). Even though the protectiveness of the passive film can be considered as high also in Ringer's solution, significantly higher passive dissolution rates (i.e., higher metal-ion release) for Ti exposed to Ringer's solution can be expected as compared with a simple saline solution.

Abstract
Biomimetically deposited octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and carbonate apatite (BCA) as well as electrolytically deposited carbonate apatite (ECA) were considered as promising alternatives to conventional plasma spraying hydroxyapatite. This study compared their physicochemical characteristics and cell attachment behavior. The physicochemical characteristics included scanning electron microscopy observation, X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, surface roughness, coating thickness, dissolution test and scratch test. Cell attachment tests included morphology observation with stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy as well as cell number count with DNA content assay. The OCP coating had 100% crystallinity and was about 40 microm thick, composed of large plate-like crystals of 30 microm, with the lowest surface roughness (R(a)=2.33 microm). The BCA coating had 60% crystallinity and was approximately 30 microm in thickness, composed of small crystals of 1-2 microm in size, with the highest surface roughness (R(a)=4.83 microm). The ECA coating had intermediate characteristics, with 78% crystallinity, 45 microm thickness, crystals of 5-6 microm and an average roughness of 3.87 microm. All coatings could be seen by eyes dissolving quickly and completely into acidic simulated body fluid (simulated physiological solutions-SPS, pH 3.0) but slowly and incompletely into neutral SPS (pH 7.3). It was suggested that the main factor determining coating dissolution in acidic SPS was the solubility isotherm, while some other factors including crystallinity and crystal size joined to determine coating dissolution in neutral SPS. In regard to adhesive strength, results of scratch test showed the critical load at the first crack of coating (L(c1)) was tightly related to crystal size as well as their arrangement, while the critical load at the total delamination of coating (L(c2)) was also related to the coating thickness. The ECA coating had the highest values. Owing to higher dissolution rate and globular appearance, BCA coating demonstrated the best goat bone marrow stromal cells attachment at 1 day or 3 days, followed by OCP and ECA coating.

Abstract
The present study demonstrates increased early mechanical fixation of titanium implants coated with a new biomimetic apatite surface in a rat model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received unilateral femoral medullary implants for periods of 1-4 weeks. The strength of fixation of the implant to the host bone increased more rapidly in the group receiving apatite-treated implants compared with the control group as evidenced by the apatite group's 21-fold greater fixation strength at 1 week (p = 0.009), 4-fold greater fixation strength at 2 weeks (p = 0.041), and 2-fold greater fixation strength at 4 weeks (p = 0.093) compared with the control. Fixation strength was correlated with bone-implant contact as determined from micro computed tomography assessment of the specimens (r2 = 0.338, p = 0.011 in the control group and r2 = 0.543, p < 0.001 in the apatite group). Furthermore, for a given amount of bone-implant contact, the fixation strength was higher in the apatite group than in the control group (p = 0.011), suggesting that the bone formed a stronger bond to the apatite coating than to the titanium. This difference in bonding strength accounted for the difference in mechanical behavior.

Abstract
Biomimetic Calcium-Phosphate (Ca-P) coatings were applied by using 5 times concentrated Simulated Body Fluid (SBF x 5) using Carbon Dioxide gas. This process allows the deposition of a uniform Ca-P coating within 24 h. A previous study of our process emphasized the importance of hydrogenocarbonate ions (HCO-3), a crystal growth inhibitor. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the other crystal growth inhibitor present in SBF x 5, Magnesium (Mg2+), on the Ca-P coating formation. Several SBF x 5 solutions were prepared with various Mg2+ and HCO3 contents. No Ca-P deposits were detected on Ti6A14V substrate soaked for 24h in a Mg-free SBF x 5 solution, whereas by increasing HCO-3 content in a Mg-free SBF x 5 solution, a Ca-P coating developed on Ti6A14V substrate. Therefore, it appeared that Mg2+ has a stronger inhibitory effect on apatite crystal growth than HCO-3. Nevertheless, Mg2+ plays also another important role as suggested by depth profile X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) of the Ca-P coating obtained from SBF x 5 solution. Ca2+ and Mg2+ contents increased significantly at the titanium/coating interface. Therefore, Ca2+ and Mg2+ initiated Ca-P coating from SBF x 5 solution. The relatively high interfacial concentration in Mg2+ favors heterogeneous nucleation of tiny Ca-P globules onto the substrate. So physical adhesion is enhanced at the early stage of the coating formation.

Abstract
Biomimetic calcium-phosphate (Ca-P) coatings were applied on Ti6Al4V by using simulated body fluids concentrated by a factor 5 (SBFx5). The production of SBFx5 solution was possible by decreasing the pH of the solution to approximately 6 using CO2 gas. The subsequent release of this mildly acidic gas led to a pH rise and thus, increasing supersaturation. After immersion for 5(1/2) h a Ca-P coating on Ti6Al4V plates and a precipitate simultaneously formed at pH = 6.8. Sodium chloride (NaCl) and hydrogencarbonate (HCO3) contents were studied in relation to CO2 release and coating formation by changing their individual concentration in SBFx5 solution. On one hand, NaCl-free or low NaCl-content SBFx5 solution led to the earlier aspecific precipitation in the solution than for SBFx5 solution. In contrast, Ca-P coating was formed later and was thinner than the coating obtained in regular SBFx5 solution. High ionic strength delayed precipitation and favored Ca-P heterogeneous nucleation on Ti6Al4V. On the other hand, HCO3- content increased the pH of the solution due to its buffering capacity and influenced the release rate of dissolved CO2. Thus, HCO3- content strongly affected the supersaturation and Ca-P structure. Furthermore, HCO3- favored the attachment of Ca-P mineral on Ti6Al4V by decreasing Ca-P crystal size resulting in a better physical attachment of Ca-P coating on Ti6Al4V substrate.

Abstract
Osteoconductive calcium phosphate coatings for total joint arthroplasty have been in clinical use since the mid1980s. The basic principles involved and basic science evidence for the efficacy of osteoconductive coatings were examined. Hydroxyapatite coatings provide consistent and better filling with bone of the gaps and spaces around cementless joint components after surgery as compared with porous-coated implant surfaces, resulting in better implant stability. Of all the calcium phosphate coatings, hydroxyapatite coatings have had the most widespread application in hip arthroplasty. Their clinical advantages over more conventional implant surfaces are evident in primary and revision hip arthroplasties. A clinical survival rate in the author's series of 97% at a minimum of 11 years followup for the femoral component in a young active patient population (average age, 53 years) was obtained with no mechanical failures. The average polyethylene wear rate in this group was 0.129 mm/year. In a similar group of young patients with revision arthroplasty using hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components, an 11-year survival rate of 93% was obtained. Histologic analysis of specimens retrieved at autopsy confirmed the excellent bony fixation of components. Advantages of the more recent biomimetic hydroxyapatite coatings were examined.

Abstract
This article describes the preparation and analysis of macroporous TiO2 films on Ti surfaces, for application in bone tissue-Ti implant interfaces. These TiO2 bioceramic films have a macroporous structure consisting of monodisperse, three-dimensional, spherical, interconnected pores adjustable in the micron size range. Micron-sized polystyrene (PS) bead templates are used to precisely define the pore size, creating macroporous TiO2 films with 0.50, 16, and 50 microm diameter pores, as shown by scanning electron microscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows the films to be predominantly composed of TiO2, with approximately 10% carbon. X-ray diffraction reveal rutile as the main phase when fired to the optimal temperature of 950 degrees C. Preliminary experiments find that the in vitro proliferation of human bone-derived cells (HBDC) is similar on all three pore sizes. However, higher [3H]thymidine incorporation by the HBDC is observed when they are grown on 0.50- and 16-microm pores compared to the 50-microm pores, suggesting an enhanced cell proliferation for the smaller pores.

Abstract
The deposition of calcium phosphate on chemically polished commercially pure titanium immersed in Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) (concentrations 0 and 4 mg/mL) has been investigated. Electrochemical techniques, 125I labeling of albumin, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used. A tricalcium phosphate layer with a thickness of ca. 1 microm was formed for periods of immersion in HBSS ranging between 1 and 2 weeks. A concentration of 4 mg/mL of BSA prevented its formation, even for periods as long as 1 month. In the absence of BSA, the electrochemical behavior of titanium specimens was significantly affected by the length of immersion time, reflecting the changes that slowly occur on their surface. In the presence of BSA, the surfaces maintained most of their original electrochemical activity. Surface studies have shown that calcium and phosphate become incorporated in the surface at very early stages of immersion. Albumin, which was rapidly adsorbed on titanium, was slowly desorbed when titanium was placed in HBSS. Protein and phosphate may coexist on the same surface, but initially adsorbed albumin molecules prevent the precipitation of a thick layer of tricalcium phosphate.

Abstract
Commercially pure titanium specimens are subjected to three different treatments, and their bioactivity are evaluated by immersing the specimens in a simulated body fluid (SBF, Kokubo's recipe) for various periods up to 7 days, with particular attention being paid to the differences in apatite deposition between surfaces open to SBF and surfaces in contact with the container's bottom. The treatment with a H(2)O(2)/HCl solution at 80 degrees C for 30 min followed by heating at 400 degrees C for 1 h produces an anatase titania gel layer on the specimen surface. This gel layer deposits apatite both on the contact and on open surfaces, and apatite deposition ability does not change with pre-staking in distilled water. The treatment with a NaOH solution at 60 degrees C for 3 days produces a sodium titanate gel layer. This gel layer can deposit apatite only on the contact surface, and the apatite deposition ability is completely lost after 1 day of pre-staking in distilled water. It is concluded, therefore, that the bioactivity of the titania gel originates from the favorable structure of the gel itself while the bioactivity of the sodium titanate gel depends heavily on ion release from the gel. The third treatment, a simple heat treatment at 400 degrees C for 1 h, produces a dense (not porous) oxide layer on the specimen surface. The specimens can deposit apatite on the contact surface after only 3 days of staking in SBF, but they cannot deposit apatite on the open surface for up to 2 months of staking. The implications of such apatite deposition behavior have been discussed in relation to the environments of titanium implants in bone as well as to the methodology of the SBF staking experiment.

Abstract
Apatite-deposited silk fabric composite materials were developed using a new alternate soaking process. The characteristics of deposited apatite were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Apatite weight increased with alternating soaking in a calcium solution [200 mM aqueous calcium chloride solution buffered with tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane and HCl (pH 7.4)] and a phosphate solution (120 mM aqueous disodium hydrogenphosphate) changed every hour. SEM showed that apatite deposited after 21 or more repeated soakings was over 20 microm thick. XRD showed that with alternate soakings, the apatite crystals deposited on silk fabric elongated along the c axis. FTIR and XPS indicated the existence of carbonate, HPO(4)(2-), and Na(+) ions in addition to constituent ions of hydroxyapatite. A loss of HPO(4)(2-) and Na(+) ions in the deposit upon further soaking might be associated with an increasing apatite crystallinity. Apatite deposited on silk by the alternate soaking process was a deficient apatite containing carbonate, HPO(4)(2-), and Na(+) ions as in a natural bone tissue. Thus, this apatite-silk composite material might be potentially bioactive.

Abstract
Surface reactivity is one of the common characteristics of bone bioactive ceramics. It contributes to their bone bonding ability and their enhancing effect on bone tissue formation. During implantation, reactions occur at the material-tissue interface that lead to time-dependent changes in the surface characteristics of the implant material and the tissues at the interface. This review describes some of the current concepts regarding the surface reactivity of bone bioactive materials and its effect on attachment, proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of bone cells.
