[PMID: 38434039 PMCID: PMC10906185 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24348] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys are considered excellent materials for biodegradable implants because of their good biocompatibility and biodegradability as well as their mechanical properties. However, the rapid degradation rate severely limits their clinical applications. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), also known as micro-arc oxidation (MAO), is an effective surface modification technique. However, there are many pores and cracks on the coating surface under conventional PEO process. The corrosive products tend to penetrate deeply into the substrate, reducing its corrosion resistance and the biocompatibility, which makes PEO-coated Mg difficult to meet the long-term needs of in vivo implants. Hence, it is necessary to modify the PEO coating. This review discusses the formation mechanism and the influential parameters of PEO coatings on Mg. This is followed by a review of the latest research of the pretreatment and typical amelioration of PEO coating on biodegradable Mg alloys in the past 5 years, including calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coating, layered double hydroxide (LDH)-PEO coating, ZrO2 incorporated-PEO coating, antibacterial ingredients-PEO coating, drug-PEO coating, polymer-PEO composite coating, Plasma electrolytic fluorination (PEF) coating and self-healing coating. Meanwhile, the improvements of morphology, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, biocompatibility, antibacterial abilities, and drug loading abilities and the preparation methods of the modified PEO coatings are deeply discussed as well. Finally, the challenges and prospects of PEO coatings are discussed in detail for the purpose of promoting the clinical application of biodegradable Mg alloys.

Additively Manufactured Zn-2Mg Alloy Porous Scaffolds with Customizable Biodegradable Performance and Enhanced Osteogenic Ability. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2307329. [PMID: 38059810 PMCID: PMC10837348 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202307329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
The combination of bioactive Zn-2Mg alloy and additively manufactured porous scaffold is expected to achieve customizable biodegradable performance and enhanced bone regeneration. Herein, Zn-2Mg alloy scaffolds with different porosities, including 40% (G-40-2), 60% (G-60-2), and 80% (G-80-2), and different unit sizes, including 1.5 mm (G-60-1.5), 2 mm (G-60-2), and 2.5 mm (G-60-2.5), are manufactured by a triply periodic minimal surface design and a reliable laser powder bed fusion process. With the same unit size, compressive strength (CS) and elastic modulus (EM) of scaffolds substantially decrease with increasing porosities. With the same porosity, CS and EM just slightly decrease with increasing unit sizes. The weight loss after degradation increases with increasing porosities and decreasing unit sizes. In vivo tests indicate that Zn-2Mg alloy scaffolds exhibit satisfactory biocompatibility and osteogenic ability. The osteogenic ability of scaffolds is mainly determined by their physical and chemical characteristics. Scaffolds with lower porosities and smaller unit sizes show better osteogenesis due to their suitable pore size and larger surface area. The results indicate that the biodegradable performance of scaffolds can be accurately regulated on a large scale by structure design and the additively manufactured Zn-2Mg alloy scaffolds have improved osteogenic ability for treating bone defects.

Poly(l-lactide)/polycaprolactone based multifunctional coating to deliver paclitaxel/VEGF and control the degradation rate of magnesium alloy stent. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 250:126218. [PMID: 37572804 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023]
Abstract
Despite significant advancements made in cardiovascular stents, restenosis, thrombosis, biocompatibility, and clinical complications remain a matter of concern. Herein, we report a biodegradable Mg alloy stent with a dual effect of the drug (Paclitaxel) and growth factor (VEGF) release. To mitigate the fast degradation of Mg alloy, inorganic and organic coatings were formed on the alloy surface. The optimized hierarchal sequence of the coating was the first layer consisting of magnesium fluoride, followed by poly(l-lactide) and hydroxyapatite coating, and finally sealed by a polycaprolactone layer (MgC). PLLA and HAp were used to increase the adhesion strength and biocompatibility of the coating. Paclitaxel and VEGF were loaded in the final PCL layer (Mg-C/PTX-VEGF). As compared to bare Mg alloy (28 % weight loss), our MgC system showed (3.1 % weight loss) successful decrease in the degradation rate. Further, the in vitro biocompatibility illustrated the highly biocompatible nature of our drug and growth factor-loaded system. The in vivo results displayed that the drug loading decreased the inflammation and neointimal hyperplasia as indicated by the α-SMA and CD-68 antibody staining. The growth factor helped in the endothelialization which was established by the FLKI and ICAM antibody staining of the tissue.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a novel 3D printable polyether ether ketone (PEEK)-hydroxyapatite (HA)-magnesium orthosilicate (Mg2SiO4) composite material with enhanced properties for potential use in tumour, osteoporosis and other spinal conditions. We aim to evaluate biocompatibility and imaging compatibility of the material. METHODS Materials were prepared in three different compositions, namely composite A: 75 weight % PEEK, 20 weight % HA, 5 weight % Mg2SiO4; composite B: 70 weight% PEEK, 25 weight % HA, 5 weight % Mg2SiO4; and composite C: 65 weight % PEEK, 30 weight % HA, 5 weight % Mg2SiO4. The materials were processed to obtain 3D printable filament. Biomechanical properties were analysed as per ASTM standards and biocompatibility of the novel material was evaluated using indirect and direct cell cytotoxicity tests. Cell viability of the novel material was compared to PEEK and PEEK-HA materials. The novel material was used to 3D print a standard spine cage. Furthermore, the CT and MR imaging compatibility of the novel material cage vs PEEK and PEEK-HA cages were evaluated using a phantom setup. RESULTS Composite A resulted in optimal material processing to obtain a 3D printable filament, while composite B and C resulted in non-optimal processing. Composite A enhanced cell viability up to ~ 20% compared to PEEK and PEEK-HA materials. Composite A cage generated minimal/no artefacts on CT and MR imaging and the images were comparable to that of PEEK and PEEK-HA cages. CONCLUSION Composite A demonstrated superior bioactivity vs PEEK and PEEK-HA materials and comparable imaging compatibility vs PEEK and PEEK-HA. Therefore, our material displays an excellent potential to manufacture spine implants with enhanced mechanical and bioactive property.

Abstract
In the present research, friction stir processed (FSPed) nano-hydroxyapatite reinforced AZ91D magnesium matrix surface composite has been developed with improved ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and biological performance, which are needed for the bio-implants. Nano-hydroxyapatite reinforcement with varying proportions (5.8%, 8.3%, and 12.5%) was introduced into the AZ91-D parent material (PM) by the grooving method with different grooves of 0.5, 1 & 1.5 mm of width and 2 mm depth machined on the surface of the PM. Taguchi's L-9 orthogonal array was employed to optimize the processing variables for enhancing the UTS of the developed composite material. The optimum parameters were discovered to be the tool rotational speed of 1000 rpm, transverse speed of 50 mm/min, and 12.5% reinforcement concentration. The results revealed that the tool rotational speed contributes the highest effect (43.69%) on UTS, followed by the reinforcement percentage (37.49%) and transverse speed (18.31%). The FSPed samples at the optimized parameter setting confirmed the enhancement of 30.17% and 31.86% in UTS and micro-hardness, respectively, compared to the PM. Cytotoxicity of the optimized sample was also found superior compared to the other FSPed samples. The optimized FSPed composite's grain size was 6.88 times smaller than the AZ91D parent matrix material. The improved mechanical and biological performances of the composites are attributed to the significant grain refinement and proper dispersion of the nHAp reinforcement in the matrix.

Abstract
Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys have been extensively investigated in orthopedic implants due to their suitable mechanical strength and high biocompatibility. However, no studies have reported whether Mg alloys can be used to repair lamina defects, and the biological mechanisms regulating osteogenesis are not fully understood. The present study developed a lamina reconstruction device using our patented biodegradable Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr alloy (JDBM), and brushite (CaHPO4·2H2O, Dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, DCPD) coating was developed on the implant. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, we evaluated the degradation behavior and biocompatibility of DCPD-JDBM. In addition, we explored the potential molecular mechanisms by which it regulates osteogenesis. In vitro, ion release and cytotoxicity tests revealed that DCPD-JDBM had better corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. We found that DCPD-JDBM extracts could promote MC3T3-E1 osteogenic differentiation via the IGF2/PI3K/AKT pathway. The lamina reconstruction device was implanted on a rat lumbar lamina defect model. Radiographic and histological analysis showed that DCPD-JDBM accelerated the repair of rat lamina defects and exhibited lower degradation rate compared to uncoated JDBM. Immunohistochemical and qRT-PCR results showed that DCPD-JDBM promoted osteogenesis in rat laminae via IGF2/PI3K/AKT pathway. This study shows that DCPD-JDBM is a promising biodegradable Mg-based material with great potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
This study investigated the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of magnesium coated with strontium-doped calcium phosphate (Sr-CaP) for dental and orthopedic applications. Sr-CaP was coated on biodegradable magnesium using a chemical dipping method. Magnesium coated with Sr-CaP exhibited better corrosion resistance than pure magnesium. Sr-CaP-coated magnesium showed excellent cell proliferation and differentiation. Additionally, new bone formation was confirmed in vivo. Therefore, Sr-CaP-coated magnesium with reduced degradation and improved biocompatibility can be used for orthopedic and dental implant applications.

A Superior Corrosion Protection of Mg Alloy via Smart Nontoxic Hybrid Inhibitor-Containing Coatings. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28062538.

Abstract
The increase of corrosion resistance of magnesium and its alloys by forming the smart self-healing hybrid coatings was achieved in this work in two steps. In the first step, using the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) treatment, a ceramic-like bioactive coating was synthesized on the surface of biodegradable MA8 magnesium alloy. During the second step, the formed porous PEO layer was impregnated with a corrosion inhibitor 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) and bioresorbable polymer polycaprolactone (PCL) in different variations to enhance the protective properties of the coating. The composition, anticorrosion, and antifriction properties of the formed coatings were studied. 8-HQ allows controlling the rate of material degradation due to the self-healing effect of the smart coating. PCL treatment of the inhibitor-containing layer significantly improves the corrosion and wear resistance and retains an inhibitor in the pores of the PEO layer. It was revealed that the corrosion inhibitor incorporation method (including the number of steps, impregnation, and the type of solvent) significantly matters to the self-healing mechanism. The hybrid coatings obtained by a 1-step treatment in a dichloromethane solution containing 6 wt.% polycaprolactone and 15 g/L of 8-HQ are characterized by the best corrosion resistance. This coating demonstrates the lowest value of corrosion current density (3.02 × 10−7 A cm−2). The formation of the hybrid coating results in the corrosion rate decrease by 18 times (0.007 mm year−1) as compared to the blank PEO layer (0.128 mm year−1). An inhibitor efficiency was established to be 83.9%. The mechanism of corrosion protection of Mg alloy via smart hybrid coating was revealed.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Zn doped CaP coatings prepared by micro-arc oxidation method, as a possible approach to control MgCa1 alloy degradation. All the prepared coatings comprised a calcium deficient CaP phase. The control in this evaluation was performed with undoped CaP coating in SBF solution at body temperature (37 ± 0.5⁰C). The investigation involved determination of microchemical, mechanical, morphological, properties along with anticorrosive, cytocompatibility and antibacterial efficacy. The effect of sterilization process on the properties of the surfaces was also investigated. The results showed that the addition of Zn into CaP increased the corrosion resistance of MgCa1 alloy. Moreover, the adhesion strength of the coatings to MgCa1 alloy was enhanced by Zn addition. In cytotoxicity testing of the samples, extracts of the samples in MEM were incubated with L929 cells and malformation, degeneration and lysis of the cells were examined microscopically after 72 h. The results showed that all samples were cytocompatible. The degradation of MgCa1 alloy in the simulated body fluids (SBF) or DMEM was decreased by coating with CaP. Moreover, the degradation rate of CaP was further decreased by adding a small amount of Zn into the CaP matrix. The samples having CaP coatings and Zn doped CaP coating demonstrated antibacterial efficacy against E.coli. As a result, coating of magnesium alloy with Zn-doped CaP decreased the degradation rate, increased the corrosion resistance, cytocompatibility and the antibacterial effects of the alloys.

Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys are widely applied biomaterials due to their biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, rapid degradation and hydrogen gas evolution hinder its applicability on a commercial scale. In this study, we developed an Mg alloy bone plate for bone remodeling and support after a fracture. We further coated the Mg alloy plate with Sr-D-Ca-P (Sr dopped Ca-P coating) and Sr-D-Ca-P/PLLA-HAp to evaluate and compare their biodegradability and biocompatibility in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Chemical immersion and dip coating were employed for the formation of Sr-D-Ca-P and PLLA-HAp layers, respectively. In vitro evaluation depicted that both coatings delayed the degradation process and exhibited excellent biocompatibility. MC3T3-E1cells proliferation and osteogenic markers expression were also promoted. In vivo results showed that both Sr-D-Ca-P and Sr-D-Ca-P/PLLA-HAp coated bone plates had slower degradation rate as compared to Mg alloy. Remarkable bone remodeling was observed around the Sr-D-Ca-P/PLLA-HAp coated bone plate than bare Mg alloy and Sr-D-Ca-P coated bone plate. These results suggest that Sr-D-Ca-P/PLLA-HAp coated Mg alloy bone plate with lower degradation and enhanced biocompatibility can be applied as an orthopedic implant.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have attracted attention as biodegradable materials for biomedical applications owing to their mechanical properties being comparable to that of bone. Mg is a vital trace element in many enzymes and thus forms one of the essential factors for human metabolism. However, before being used in biomedical applications, the early stage or fast degradation of Mg and its alloys in the physiological environment should be controlled. The degradation of Mg alloys is a critical criterion that can be controlled by a surface modification which is an effective process for conserving their desired properties. Different coating methods have been employed to modify Mg surfaces to provide good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. This review aims to provide information on different coatings and discuss their physical and biological properties. Finally, the current withstanding challenges have been highlighted and discussed, followed by shedding some light on future perspectives.

Abstract
Bone substitute materials have been successfully used for bone defects in orthopedics and trauma surgery for a long time; however, there are cases, especially in bone defects with a critical size, in which the treatment is complicated. Nowadays, multiple bone substitute materials are available. Autologous cancellous bone grafts remain the gold standard among the bone replacement materials; however, donor site morbidity and the limited availability of autologous cancellous bone represent restrictions for autologous bone grafting. Allogeneic cancellous bone grafts have also been successfully for years in the treatment of bone defects; however, infection rates of more than 10% have been described for the use of allogeneic cancellous bone. By introducing synthetic bone substitutes further alternatives are currently available to the user for the individual treatment of bone defects. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of various synthetic bone substitute materials.

Abstract
AbstractAccording to the National Institute of Health, the biodegradability, non-toxic nature, and remarkable natural and mechanical properties of magnesium and its components make them desirable choices for use in the production of supplies for biomedical implantation. Simulated bodily fluid (SBF) is used as a standard electrolyte for in vitro corrosion research. Each SBF module's independent and synergistic corrosion effects are studied in this study. Artificial pH variations increase degradation, according to the results. This experiment examined the Mg corrosion submerged in a SBF solution. The effect of pH changes on the rate of corrosion of Mg immersed in standard SBF solution was investigated. According to the previously published study, the corrosion process of Mg has been confirmed by scanning electron microscopy observations of damaged surface morphology. Because of these investigations, pH 7 was selected as the pH for bodily fluids since it is neutral.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) alloys are potential materials for orthopedic fixation devices but rapid degradation of the materials restricts wider clinical applications. Herein, zinc-incorporated calcium phosphate (Ca-Zn-P) coatings are prepared on the Zn-pretreated WE43 Mg alloy by a hydrothermal technique under relatively stable and favorable conditions. The hydrothermal coating consists of a compact bottom layer of CaZn2(PO4)2∙2 H2O and ZnO granular crystals and a jagged upper layer of CaHPO4. The Zn coating reduces the corrosion current density of WE43 to (3.49 ± 1.60) × 10-5 A cm-2, whereas the Ca-Zn-P/Zn composite coating further reduces it by 3 orders of magnitude in the simulated body fluid (SBF). The charge transfer resistances of the Zn-coated and Ca-Zn-P/Zn-coated alloys increase by 49 and 7176 times to 835 and 1.22 × 105 Ω cm2, respectively. The 7-day immersion results reveal that the Zn coating cannot provide long-term protection to WE43 in SBF because of the formation of galvanic couples between the Zn coating and WE43. In contrast, Ca-Zn-P/Zn-coated WE43 remains intact after soaking for 7 days and furthermore, the Ca-Zn-P coating self-repairs and continues to grow despite dissolution. The compact and adherent Ca-Zn-P bottom layer plays a major role in mitigating corrosion of WE43 by hindering penetration of the aggressive medium and charge transfer of the corrosion reactions resulting in only slight corrosion of the Zn layer. Biologically, the Zn coating reduces attachment and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts on WE43, but the composite coating fosters cell adhesion and proliferation which stems from the good biocompatibility of the hydrothermal layer and relatively stable surface conditions avoiding severe corrosion.

Abstract
The rapid degradation characteristics of magnesium alloys limit its application in the field of orthopedic fracture fixation and cardiovascular stents. This study aimed to improve the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of AZ31 magnesium alloys and prepare degradable implant materials. Micro-arc oxidation (MAO) was used to change the concentration of yttrium acetate in the electrolyte to prepare coatings with different yttrium content on the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy. Through characterization, it is proved that the yttrium in the coating mainly exists in the form of Y3+. The polarization potential experiment shows that the micro-arc oxidation coating significantly improves the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys. With the increase of yttrium acetate concentration in the electrolyte, the corrosion resistance of the coating first increases and then weakens. When the concentration is 0.0035 mol/L, the coating has the highest corrosion resistance. The results of CCK-8 cytotoxicity experiment and cell morphology observation also proved that the cell viability in each group was greater than 140%, and the yttrium-doped coating on the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy has no cytotoxicity, can promote cell growth, and has good biocompatibility.

Crystalline Biomimetic Calcium Phosphate Coating on Mini-Pin Implants to Accelerate Osseointegration and Extend Drug Release Duration for an Orthodontic Application.

Abstract
Miniscrew implants (MSIs) have been widely used as temporary anchorage devices in orthodontic clinics. However, one of their major limitations is the relatively high failure rate. We hypothesize that a biomimetic calcium phosphate (BioCaP) coating layer on mini-pin implants might be able to accelerate the osseointegration, and can be a carrier for biological agents. A novel mini-pin implant to mimic the MSIs was used. BioCaP (amorphous or crystalline) coatings with or without the presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) were applied on such implants and inserted in the metaphyseal tibia in rats. The percentage of bone to implant contact (BIC) in histomorphometric analysis was used to evaluate the osteoconductivity of such implants from six different groups (n=6 rats per group): (1) no coating no BSA group, (2) no coating BSA adsorption group, (3) amorphous BioCaP coating group, (4) amorphous BioCaP coating-incorporated BSA group, (5) crystalline BioCaP coating group, and (6) crystalline BioCaP coating-incorporated BSA group. Samples were retrieved 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks post-surgery. The results showed that the crystalline BioCaP coating served as a drug carrier with a sustained release profile. Furthermore, the significant increase in BIC occurred at week 1 in the crystalline coating group, but at week 2 or week 4 in other groups. These findings indicate that the crystalline BioCaP coating can be a promising surface modification to facilitate early osseointegration and increase the success rate of miniscrew implants in orthodontic clinics.

Abstract
Implant-related infections, mainly caused by Staphylococcus aureus, are a major health concern. Treatment is challenging due to multi-resistant strains and the ability of S. aureus to adhere and form biofilms on bone and implant surfaces. The present work involved the preparation and evaluation of a novel dual polymeric film coating on stainless steel. Chitosan and polycaprolactone (PCL) multilayers, loaded with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microspheres encapsulating vancomycin or daptomycin, produced by the dip-coating technique, allowed local antibiotic-controlled delivery for the treatment of implant-related infections. Enhanced adhesion of the film to the metal substrate surface was achieved by mechanical abrasion of its surface. Studies have shown that for both drugs the release occurs by diffusion, but the release profile depends on the type of drug (daptomycin or vancomycin), the pH of the solution, and whether the drug is freestanding (directly incorporated into the films) or encapsulated in PMMA microspheres. Daptomycin freestanding films reached 90% release after 1 day at pH 7.4 and 4 days at pH 5.5. In comparison, films with daptomycin encapsulated microspheres reached 90% release after 2 h at pH 5.5 and 2 days at pH 7.4. Vancomycin encapsulated and freestanding films showed a similar behavior reaching 90% release after 20 h of release at pH 5.5 and 2 and 3 days, respectively, at pH 7.4. Furthermore, daptomycin-loaded films showed activity (assessed by agar diffusion assays) against sensitive (ATCC 25923) and clinically isolated (MRSA) S. aureus strains.

Abstract
High-purity magnesium (Mg) is a promising biodegradable metal for oral and maxillofacial implants. Appropriate surface roughness plays a critical role in the degradation behavior and the related cellular processes of biodegradable Mg-based metals. Nevertheless, the most optimized surface roughness has been questionable, especially for Mg-based oral and maxillofacial implants. Three representative scales of surface roughness were investigated in this study, including smooth (Sa < 0.5 µm), moderately rough (Sa between 1.0−2.0 µm), and rough (Sa > 2.0 µm). The results indicated that the degradation rate of the Mg specimen in the cell culture medium was significantly accelerated with increased surface roughness. Furthermore, an extract test revealed that Mg with different roughness did not induce an evident cytotoxic effect. Nonetheless, the smooth Mg surface had an adversely affected cell attachment. Therefore, the high-purity Mg with a moderately rough surface exhibited the most optimized balance between biodegradability and overall cytocompatibility.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have exhibited great potential for orthopedic applications; however, their poor corrosion resistance and potential cytotoxicity have hindered their further clinical applications. In this study, we prepared a calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coating with a micro-nanofibrous porous structure on the Mg alloy surface by a chemical conversion method. The morphology, composition, and corrosion performance of the coatings were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), immersion tests, and electrochemical measurements. The effects of the preparation temperature of the Ca-P coatings were analyzed, and the results confirmed that the coating obtained at 60 °C had the densest structure and the best corrosion resistance. In addition, a systematic investigation into cell viability, ALP activity, and cell morphology confirmed that the Ca-P coating had excellent biocompatibility, which could effectively promote the proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion of osteoblasts. Hence, the Ca-P coating demonstrates great potential in the field of biodegradable Mg-based orthopedic implant materials.

Abstract
Low-density metals such as Mg and Al (and their alloys) are of high interest for lightweight engineering applications in various industries. Moisture sensitivity, poor tribology, and corrosion susceptibility limit the direct application of these light metals. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is extensively used to passivate light metals against corrosion and enhance their mechanical properties. PEO processes in current use are often energy-intensive and use toxic electrolytes. Incorporating composite characteristics to PEO-treated surfaces typically requires modification of electrolytes with nanoparticle addition. Some applications also need post-treatment of oxidized coatings to ensure functionality. We report a versatile, environmentally friendly PEO process that uses organo-silicate electrolytes enriched with nitrogen-containing solutions. The single-step process produces ∼6 μm thick, uniform, adherent, and porous oxide coatings on AZ80 and Al6061 surfaces in 15 min. We evaluated the influence and effectiveness of in situ nitridation by comparing the coating properties with those on alloys treated in PEO electrolytes without nitrogen-containing chemicals. The two sets of coatings were porous with multilayered basalt-like topographies and were composed of metal oxides and metal silicates. Alloys treated in nitrogen-containing electrolytes exhibited the presence of oxynitrides. The use of nitrogen-containing PEO electrolytes resulted in coatings with enhanced mechanical behavior. We found that the corrosion resistance of coatings prepared using low voltages in this study was comparable to the traditional PEO-treated coatings reported in the literature. Nitridation of the coatings, however, appears to have a slightly negative influence on the coatings' corrosion resistance. Our future work will focus on improving the corrosion resistance of the mechanically resilient, nitride-containing PEO-treated coatings.

Abstract
Mg alloys have attracted significant attention as promising biomedical materials, specifically as fixation materials for promoting fracture healing. However, their unsatisfactory corrosion resistances hinder further clinical applications and thus require attention. This study aims to determine the performance of novel chitosan-coated Mg-1Zn-0.3Zr-2Gd-1Ca alloy and its ability to promote the healing of osteoporotic fractures. Moreover, its corrosion resistance and biocompatibility were assessed. Performance degradations of the samples were measured via electrochemical tests, weight loss test and morphological analysis, and the uncoated and chitosan-coated fixations were compared based on their effects on biocompatibility via the cytotoxicity test, X-rays, and hematoxylin and eosin staining. The effect of bone growth and healing was investigated via immunohistochemical test. Results of the electrochemical tests indicated that compared with the bare body, chitosan-coated Mg-Zn-Ca-Zr-Gd alloys improved by one order of magnitude. Additionally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and weight loss test demonstrated that the corrosion resistance of the chitosan-coated Mg alloy is better than that of the uncoated alloy. In addition, cytotoxicity analysis indicated that the viability and morphology of the chitosan-coated alloy groups were superior to the uncoated groups in vitro. During in vivo analysis, chitosan-coated and uncoated Mg-1Zn-0.3Zr-2Gd-1Ca alloys were implanted into ovariectomized SD female rats with osteoporotic fractures for 1, 2, and 3 weeks. No displacement and shedding were observed through X-rays, and pathological analyses proved that the material was not harmful for liver and kidney tissues. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the chitosan-coated Mg-Zn-Ca-Zr-Gd alloy material contributed to the healing of osteoporotic fractures in the SD rat models. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the chitosan-coated Mg-Zn-Ca-Zr-Gd alloys have improved corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Moreover, the alloy was found to accelerate the healing of osteoporotic fractures in SD rat models. Therefore, it has significant potential as a fixation material for osteoporotic fractures.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic surfaces, as indicated in the name, are highly hydrophobic and readily repel water. With contact angles greater than 150° and sliding angles less than 10°, water droplets flow easily and hardly wet these surfaces. Superhydrophobic materials and coatings have been drawing increasing attention in medical fields, especially on account of their promising applications in blood-contacting devices. Superhydrophobicity controls the interactions of cells with the surfaces and facilitates the flowing of blood or plasma without damaging blood cells. The antibiofouling effect of superhydrophobic surfaces resists adhesion of organic substances, including blood components and microorganisms. These attributes are critical to medical applications such as filter membranes, prosthetic heart valves, extracorporeal circuit tubing, and indwelling catheters. Researchers have developed various methods to fabricate blood-compatible or biocompatible superhydrophobic surfaces using different materials. In addition to being hydrophobic, these surfaces can also be antihemolytic, antithrombotic, antibacterial, and antibiofouling, making them ideal for clinical applications. In this review, the authors summarize recent developments of blood-compatible superhydrophobic surfaces, with a focus on methods and materials. The expectation of this review is that it will support the biomedical research field by providing current trends as well as future directions.

Abstract
Corrosion resistant and biocompatible AZ31 magnesium alloy surfaces were successfully prepared by ultrasonic cold forging and subsequent micro-arc oxidation. The properties of these ultrasonic cold forging pretreated (UCFT)AZ31 magnesium alloy surfaces containing Sr–Ca–P micro-arc oxide coating (MAO/UCFT/AZ31) were studied. Results showed that surface grain refinement of AZ31 Mg alloy in the depth of 400 μm owing to the ultrasonic cold forging pretreatment was verified, and which provides more discharge channels for subsequent micro-arc oxidation. Comparing with the AZ31 magnesium alloy (AZ31) and ultrasonic cold forging technology treated AZ31 magnesium alloy samples (UCFT/AZ31), the corrosion resistance of MAO/UCFT/AZ31 significantly improved, which is also supported by the immersion experiments and electrochemical tests in simulated body fluid. Meanwhile, the MAO/UCFT/AZ31 samples also had excellent cytocompatibility as well as MAO/AZ31 samples. These results may beneficial to the developing of biodegradable medical materials in future.

Abstract
Recently, zinc and its alloys have been proposed as promising candidates for biodegradable metals (BMs), owning to their preferable corrosion behavior and acceptable biocompatibility in cardiovascular, bone and gastrointestinal environments, together with Mg-based and Fe-based BMs. However, there is the desire for surface treatment for Zn-based BMs to better control their biodegradation behavior. Firstly, the implantation of some Zn-based BMs in cardiovascular environment exhibited intimal activation with mild inflammation. Secondly, for orthopedic applications, the biodegradation rates of Zn-based BMs are relatively slow, resulting in a long-term retention after fulfilling their mission. Meanwhile, excessive Zn2+ release during degradation will cause in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo delayed osseointegration. In this review, we firstly summarized the current surface modification methods of Zn-based alloys for the industrial applications. Then we comprehensively summarized the recent progress of biomedical bulk Zn-based BMs as well as the corresponding surface modification strategies. Last but not least, the future perspectives towards the design of surface bio-functionalized coatings on Zn-based BMs for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications were also briefly proposed.

Abstract
Background: Magnesium (Mg) is one of the most promising materials for human use in surgery due to material characteristics such as its elastic modulus as well as its resorbable and regenerative properties. In this study, HF-coated and uncoated novel bioresorbable magnesium fixation screws for maxillofacial and dental surgical applications were investigated in vitro and in vivo to evaluate the biocompatibility of the HF coating. Methods: Mg alloy screws that had either undergone a surface treatment with hydrofluoric-acid (HF) or left untreated were investigated. In vitro investigation included XTT, BrdU and LDH in accordance with the DIN ISO 10993-5/-12. In vivo, the screws were implanted into the tibia of rabbits. After 3 and 6 weeks, degradation, local tissue reactions and bony integration were analyzed histopathologically and histomorphometrically. Additionally, SEM/EDX analysis and synchrotron phase-contrast microtomography (µCT) measurements were conducted. The in vitro analyses revealed that the Mg screws are cytocompatible, with improved results when the surface had been passivated with HF. In vivo, the HF-treated Mg screws implanted showed a reduction in gas formation, slower biodegradation and a better bony integration in comparison to the untreated Mg screws. Histopathologically, the HF-passivated screws induced a layer of macrophages as part of its biodegradation process, whereas the untreated screws caused a slight fibrous tissue reaction. SEM/EDX analysis showed that both screws formed a similar layer of calcium phosphates on their surfaces and were surrounded by bone. Furthermore, the µCT revealed the presence of a metallic core of the screws, a faster absorbing corrosion front and a slow absorbing region of corroded magnesium. Conclusions: Overall, the HF-passivated Mg fixation screws showed significantly better biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo compared to the untreated screws.

Abstract
This study investigated the biocompatibility of strontium-doped calcium phosphate (Sr-CaP) coatings on pure magnesium (Mg) surfaces for bone applications. Sr-CaP coated specimens were obtained by chemical immersion method on biodegradable magnesium. In this study, Sr-CaP coated magnesium was obtained by immersing pure magnesium in a solution containing Sr-CaP at 80 °C for 3 h. The corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of magnesium according to the content of Sr-CaP coated on the magnesium surface were evaluated. As a result, the corrosion resistance of Sr-CaP coated magnesium was improved compared to pure magnesium. In addition, it was confirmed that the biocompatibility of the group containing Sr was increased. Thus, the Ca-SrP coating with a reduced degradation and improved biocompatibility could be used in Mg-based orthopedic implant applications.

Abstract
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have a wide range of potential novel medical applications due to their superelastic properties and ability to restore and retain a 'memorised' shape. However, most SMAs are permanent and do not degrade in the body when used in implantable devices. The use of non-degrading metals may lead to the requirement for secondary removal surgery and this in turn may introduce both short and long-term health risks, or additional waste disposal requirements. Biodegradable SMAs can effectively eliminate these issues by gradually degrading inside the human body while providing the necessary support for healing purposes, therefore significantly alleviating patient discomfort and improving healing efficiency. This paper reviews the current progress in biodegradable SMAs from the perspective of biodegradability, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. By providing insights into the status of SMAs and biodegradation mechanisms, the prospects for Mg- and Fe-based biodegradable SMAs to advance biodegradable SMA-based medical devices are explored. Finally, the remaining challenges and potential solutions in the biodegradable SMAs area are discussed, providing suggestions and research frameworks for future studies on this topic.

Abstract
Additively manufactured (AM) biodegradable magnesium (Mg) scaffolds with precisely controlled and fully interconnected porous structures offer unprecedented potential as temporary bone substitutes and for bone regeneration in critical-sized bone defects. However, current attempts to apply AM techniques, mainly powder bed fusion AM, for the preparation of Mg scaffolds, have encountered some crucial difficulties related to safety in AM operations and severe oxidation during AM processes. To avoid these difficulties, extrusion-based 3D printing has been recently developed to prepare porous Mg scaffolds with highly interconnected structures. However, limited bioactivity and a too high rate of biodegradation remain the major challenges that need to be addressed. Here, we present a new generation of extrusion-based 3D printed porous Mg scaffolds that are coated with MgF2 and MgF2-CaP to improve their corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, thereby bringing the AM scaffolds closer to meeting the clinical requirements for bone substitutes. The mechanical properties, in vitro biodegradation behavior, electrochemical response, and biocompatibility of the 3D printed Mg scaffolds with a macroporosity of 55% and a strut density of 92% were evaluated. Furthermore, comparisons were made between the bare scaffolds and the scaffolds with coatings. The coating not only covered the struts but also infiltrated the struts through micropores, resulting in decreases in both macro- and micro-porosity. The bare Mg scaffolds exhibited poor corrosion resistance due to the highly interconnected porous structure, while the MgF2-CaP coatings remarkably improved the corrosion resistance, lowering the biodegradation rate of the scaffolds down to 0.2 mm y-1. The compressive mechanical properties of the bare and coated Mg scaffolds before and during in vitro immersion tests for up to 7 days were both in the range of the values reported for the trabecular bone. Moreover, direct culture of MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts on the coated Mg scaffolds confirmed their good biocompatibility. Overall, this study clearly demonstrated the great potential of MgF2-CaP coated porous Mg prepared by extrusion-based 3D printing for further development as a bone substitute.

Abstract
The effect of unidirectional and cross rolling on the corrosion rate, texture, tensile properties and hemolysis of the Mg-0.375Ga and Mg-0.750Ga alloys was evaluated. Pure Mg and as-cast alloys were processed by unidirectional and cross rolling at 400°C to obtain a total thickness reduction of 50%. The corrosion rate was measured by the weight loss method in simulated body fluid. Determination of the hemolysis percentage was carried out by direct contact of specimens with diluted blood. After hot rolling, the mechanical properties of the alloys were improved. The cross-rolled Mg-0.750Ga alloy showed the highest grain refinement (55 μm) and the highest ultimate tensile strength (240 MPa), however, lower elongation (13.9%) than the rolled Mg-0.375Ga alloy. While unidirectional rolling creates a strong basal texture, cross rolling weakens considerably this texture. The Ga addition weakens the basal texture. Corrosion rate of the Mg-Ga alloys was significantly reduced (<1 mm/yr) after heat treatment and hot rolling due the homogenization of the microstructure and the presence of gallium as alloying element. The cross-rolled samples showed higher corrosion than the heat-treated and unidirectionally rolled samples. After rolling, alloys showed hemolysis percentages between 7.1 and 9.3%, values lower than those presented by pure magnesium (>22.7%) and as-cast alloys (>24.2%); however, the alloys are still hemolytic (>5%).

Abstract
Autologous bone grafting remains the gold standard for almost all bone void-filling orthopedic surgery. However, autologous bone grafting has several limitations, thus scientists are trying to identify an ideal synthetic material as an alternative bone graft substitute. Magnesium-doped biphasic calcium phosphate (Mg-BCP) has recently been in the spotlight and is considered to be a potential bone substitute. The Mg-BCP is a mixture of two bioceramics, that is, hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), doped with Mg2+ , and can be synthesized through chemical wet-precipitation, sol-gel, single diffusion gel, and solid state reactions. Regardless of the synthesis routes, it is found that the Mg2+ preferentially accommodates in β-TCP lattice instead of the HA lattice. The addition of Mg2+ to BCP leads to desirable physicochemical properties and is found to enhance the apatite-forming ability as compared to pristine BCP. In vitro results suggest that the Mg-BCP is bioactive and not toxic to cells. Implantation of Mg-BCP in in vivo models further affirmed its biocompatibility and efficacy as a bone substitute. However, like the other bioceramics, the optimum physicochemical properties of the Mg-BCP scaffold have yet to be determined. Further investigations are required regarding Mg-BCP applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is considered a promising technology for repairing bone defects. Mg2+ promotes osteogenesis, which makes Mg-based scaffolds popular for research on orthopedic implant materials. Angiogenesis plays an important role in the process of bone tissue repair and regeneration, and it is one of the important problems in BTE urgently needs to be solved. METHODS Mg was firstly coated with Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) via hydrothermal treatment, and polydopamine (DOPA) was then used as the connecting medium to immobilize vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on the CDHA coating. The physicochemical properties of the coatings were characterized by SEM, EDS, XPS, FTIR and immersion experiment in SBF. The ahesion, proliferation, and angiogenesis potential of the coatings were determined in vitro. RESULTS The composite coating significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Mg and prohibited excessively high local alkalinity. VEGF could be firmly immobilized on Mg via polydopamine. The CCK-8, live/dead staining and adhesion test results showed that the VEGF-DOPA-CDHA coating exhibited excellent biocompatibility and could significantly improve the adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells on Mg. Microtubule formation, immunofluorescence and Quantitative Real-Time PCR (qRT-PCR) experiments showed that VEGF immobilized on Mg still possessed bioactivity in promoting the differentiation of rat mesenchymal stem cells into endothelial cells. CONCLUSION In this study, we enabled the angiogenic biological activity of Mg by immobilizing VEGF on Mg. Mg was successfully coated with a functional VEGF-DOPA-CDHA composite coating. The CDHA coating significantly increased the corrosion resistance of Mg and prohibited the negative effect of excessively high local alkalinity on the biological activity of VEGF. As an intermediate layer, the DOPA coating protects Mg, and DOPA provides a binding site for VEGF so that VEGF can be firmly immobilized on Mg and give Mg angiogenic bioactivity during the initial period of implantation. THE TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL OF THIS ARTICLE The treatment of large bone defect is still one of the orthopedic trauma diseases that are difficult to be completely treated in clinic. The development of tissue engineering technology provides a new option for the treatment of large bone defects. The regeneration of blood vessels is of great significance for the repair of bone defects. In this study, VEGF was connected on the surface of degradable magnesium by covalent bonding. Vascular biofunctionalized magnesium scaffolds are expected to regenerate bone tissue with blood transport and be used in the clinical treatment of large bone defects.

Abstract
Powder metallurgy (PM) method is one of the most effective methods for the production of composite materials. However, there are obstacles that limit the production of magnesium matrix composites (MgMCs), which are in the category of biodegradable materials, by this method. During the weighing and mixing stages, risky situations can arise, such as the exposure of Mg powders to oxidation. Once this risk is eliminated, new MgMCs can be produced. In this study, a paraffin coating technique was applied to Mg powders and new MgMCs with superior mechanical and corrosion properties were produced using the hot pressing technique. The content of the composites consist of an Mg2Zn matrix alloy and Al2O3 particle reinforcements. After the debinding stage at 300 °C, the sintering process was carried out at 625 °C under 50 MPa pressure for 60 min. Before and after the immersion process in Hank’s solution, the surface morphology of the composite specimens was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. With the hot pressing technique, composite specimens with a very dense and homogeneous microstructure were obtained. While Al2O3 reinforcement improved the mechanical properties, it was effective in changing the corrosion properties up to a certain extent (2 wt.% Al2O3). The highest tensile strength value of approximately 191 MPa from the specimen with 8 wt.% Al2O3. The lowest weight loss and corrosion rate were obtained from the specimen containing 2 wt.% Al2O3 at approximately 9% and 2.5 mm/year, respectively. While the Mg(OH)2 structure in the microstructure formed a temporary film layer, the apatite structures containing Ca, P, and O exhibited a permanent behavior on the surface, and significantly improved the corrosion resistance.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are promising biodegradable metallic implant materials. However, their clinical applications are limited by their fast corrosion rate in the biological environment. In this work, with an outlook to improve the in vitro corrosion resistance of Mg and WE43 Mg alloy, a layer-by-layer interfacially engineered anticorrosive and bioactive coating consisting of a natural oxide lower layer, hydroxyapatite (HA) middle layer, and silk fibroin (SF) top layer was fabricated and investigated. Anodization was used to create natural oxide layer induced microroughness on substrates. The electrochemically deposited HA layer improved the surface microroughness and microhardness but significantly decreased Mg ion release, hydrogen gas evolution, and weight loss in simulated body fluid. The spin-coated SF layer further decreased hydrophilicity, in vitro degradation, and corrosion rate. The nonspecific and specific intermolecular interactions between fabricated layers along with their mechanical interlocking interface contributed to improved adhesion strength and integrity of the coating. The SF+HA-coated samples showed enhanced degradation and corrosion resistance due to a synergistic effect of the underlying HA layer, hindering the ingress of aggressive ions and the top hydrophobic SF layer, preventing the ingress of corrosive solution. The SF+HA-coated Mg and WE43 Mg alloy samples exhibited 50 and 26 times decreased corrosion rate, respectively, compared to uncoated samples. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxicity and cell culture studies using a mouse fibroblast cell showed that the SF+HA hybrid coating improved the cell viability, attachment, and proliferation, with cells exhibiting elongated morphology on coated samples as compared to a round shape on uncoated samples.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are promising biodegradable materials for orthopedic applications. However, one of the major problems is their rapid degradation rate with quick evolution of hydrogen gas. To overcome this problem, calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings have been used to improve the degradation resistance and the biocompatibility of Mg materials. This study focuses on the comparison and correlation of the in vitro and in vivo degradation and biocompatibility behaviors of these materials. A CaP coating consisting of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) was deposited on an AZ60 Mg alloy by the chemical conversion method. Then, the in vitro degradation testing including electrochemical and immersion tests, and in vivo implantation of the CaP coated Mg alloy were conducted to compare the degradation behaviors. Next, the in vitro cell behavior and in vivo bone tissue response were also compared on both uncoated and CaP-coated Mg samples. Data showed that the CaP coating provided the Mg alloy with significantly better biodegradation behavior and biocompatibility. The in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility tests exhibited good consistency while not the case for biodegradation. Results showed that the in vitro electrochemical test could be a quick screening tool for the biodegradation rate, while the in vitro immersion degradation rate was often 2-4 folds faster than the in vivo degradation rate.

Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys have become potential implant materials in the future because of light weight, mechanical properties similar to natural bone, good biocompatibility, and degradability in physiological environment. However, due to the rapid corrosion and degradation of magnesium alloys in vivo, especially in the environment containing chloride ions, the application of magnesium alloys as implant materials has been limited. Therefore, improving the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy and ensuring good biocompatibility is the main focus of the current research. In this study, hydroxyapatite coating was prepared on magnesium alloy surface using carboxymethyl cellulose-dopamine hydrogel as inducer to improve corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Surface characterization techniques (scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy- and X-ray diffraction) confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite on the surface of AZ31 alloy. Corrosion resistance tests have proved the protective effect of Carboxymethyl cellulose-Dopamine/hydroxyapatite (CMC-DA/HA) coating on the surface of AZ31 alloy. According to MC3T3-E1 cell viability and Live/Dead staining, the coating also showed good biocompatibility. The results will provide new ideas for the biological application of magnesium alloys.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a functional tissue engineering approach that applies gradual mechanical traction on the bone tissues after osteotomy to stimulate bone regeneration. However, DO still has disadvantages that limit its clinical use, including long treatment duration. METHODS Review the current methods of promoting bone formation and consolidation in DO with particular interest on biometal. RESULTS Numerous approaches, including physical therapy, gene therapy, growth factor-based therapy, stem-cell-based therapy, and improved distraction devices, have been explored to reduce the DO treatment duration with some success. Nevertheless, no approach to date is widely accepted in clinical practice due to various reasons, such as high expense, short biologic half-life, and lack of effective delivery methods. Biometals, including calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and cobalt (Co) have attracted attention in bone regeneration attributed to their biodegradability and bioactive components released during in vivo degradation. CONCLUSION This review summarizes the current therapies accelerating bone formation in DO and the beneficial role of biometals in bone regeneration, particularly focusing on the use of biometal Mg and its alloy in promoting bone formation in DO. Translational potential: The potential clinical applications using Mg-based devices to accelerate DO are promising. Mg stimulates expression of multiple intrinsic biological factors and the development of Mg as an implantable component in DO may be used to argument bone formation and consolidation in DO.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) has mechanical properties similar to human bones and Mg alloy is considered ideal medical implant material. However, the high velocity of degradation inside the human inner environment severely hampers the usage of Mg alloys. In this study, caerin peptide 1.9 (F3) and a modified sequence of caerin 1.1 (F1) with anti-bacterial activity, were covalently immobilised on the surface of Mg alloys by plasma chemical click reaction. The in vitro antibacterial activity and corrosion resistance of these caerin peptide-immobilised Mg alloys were investigated in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) solution. Un-immobilised Mg alloy sample, blank drug-sensitive tablet (BASD) and a commonly used antibiotics Tazocin were used for comparison. Results showed that peptide immobilised Mg samples showed observable improved corrosion resistance and prolonged antibacterial effect compared to non-immobilised Mg alloy and free caerin peptides. These results indicate that coating Mg alloy with caerin peptides obviously increases the alloy's antibacterial ability and putatively improves the corrosion resistance in vitro. The mechanism underlying the prolonged antibacterial effect for annealed Mg alloys immobilised with the peptides (especially F3) remains unclear, which worth further experimental and theoretical investigation.

Liu L, Huang B, Liu X, Yuan W, Zheng Y, Li Z, Yeung KWK, Zhu S, Liang Y, Cui Z, Wu S. Photo-controlled degradation of PLGA/Ti 3C 2 hybrid coating on Mg-Sr alloy using near infrared light. Bioact Mater 2021; 6:568-578. [PMID: 32995680 PMCID: PMC7501411 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2020.08.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2020] [Revised: 08/16/2020] [Accepted: 08/16/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
A PLGA/Ti3C2 hybrid coating was successfully deposited on the surface of magnesium-strontium (Mg-Sr) alloys. Compared with the corrosion current density (i corr ) of the Mg-Sr alloy (7.13 × 10-5 A/cm2), the modified samples (Mg/PLGA/Ti3C2) was lower by approximately four orders of magnitude (7.65 × 10-9 A/cm2). After near infrared 808 nm laser irradiation, the i corr of the modified samples increased to 3.48 × 10-7 A/cm2. The mechanism is that the local hyperthermia induced the free volume expansion of PLGA, and the increase in intermolecular gap enhanced the penetration of electrolytes. Meanwhile, the cytotoxicity study showed that the hybrid coating endowed the Mg-Sr alloy with enhanced biocompatibility.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite has become an important coating material for bioimplants, following the introduction of synthetic HAp in the 1950s. The HAp coatings require controlled surface roughness/porosity, adequate corrosion resistance and need to show favorable tribological behavior. The deposition rate must be sufficiently fast and the coating technique needs to be applied at different scales on substrates having a diverse structure, composition, size, and shape. A detailed overview of dry and wet coating methods is given. The benefits of electrodeposition include controlled thickness and morphology, ability to coat a wide range of component size/shape and ease of industrial processing. Pulsed current and potential techniques have provided denser and more uniform coatings on different metallic materials/implants. The mechanism of HAp electrodeposition is considered and the effect of operational variables on deposit properties is highlighted. The most recent progress in the field is critically reviewed. Developments in mineral substituted and included particle, composite HAp coatings, including those reinforced by metallic, ceramic and polymeric particles; carbon nanotubes, modified graphenes, chitosan, and heparin, are considered in detail. Technical challenges which deserve further research are identified and a forward look in the field of the electrodeposited HAp coatings is taken.

Abstract
Biomaterials are in use for the replacement and reconstruction of several tissues and organs as treatment and enhancement. Metallic, organic, and composites are some of the common materials currently in practice. Metallic materials contribute a big share of their mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion properties, while organic polymeric materials stand high due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and natural availability. To enhance the biocompatibility of these metals and alloys, coatings are frequently applied. Organic polymeric materials and ceramics are extensively utilized for this purpose due to their outstanding characteristics of biocompatibility and biodegradability. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is the material from the ceramic class which is an ultimate candidate for coating on these metals for biomedical applications. HAp possesses similar chemical and structural characteristics to normal human bone. Due to the bioactivity and biocompatibility of HAp, it is used for bone implants for regenerating bone tissues. This review covers an extensive study of the development of HAp coatings specifically for the orthopaedic applications that include different coating techniques and the process parameters of these coating techniques. Additionally, the future direction and challenges have been also discussed briefly in this review, including the coating of HAp in combination with other calcium magnesium phosphates that occur naturally in human bone.

The Effect of Ca on In Vitro Behavior of Biodegradable Zn-Fe Alloy in Simulated Physiological Environments. METALS 2020.

Abstract
The growing interest in Zn based alloys as structural materials for biodegradable implants is mainly attributed to the excellent biocompatibility of Zn and its important role in many physiological reactions. In addition, Zn based implants do not tend to produce hydrogen gas in in vivo conditions and hence do not promote the danger of gas embolism. However, Zn based implants can provoke encapsulation processes that, practically, may isolate the implant from its surrounding media, which limits its capability of performing as an acceptable biodegradable material. To overcome this problem, previous research carried out by the authors has paved the way for the development of Zn-Fe based alloys that have a relatively increased corrosion rate compared to pure Zn. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of 0.3–1.6% Ca on the in vitro behavior of Zn-Fe alloys and thus to further address the encapsulation problem. The in vitro assessment included immersion tests and electrochemical analysis in terms of open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and impedance spectroscopy in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution at 37 °C. The mechanical properties of the examined alloys were evaluated by tension and hardness tests while cytotoxicity properties were examined using indirect cell metabolic activity analysis. The obtained results indicated that Ca additions increased the corrosion rate of Zn-Fe alloys and in parallel increased their strength and hardness. This was mainly attributed to the formation of a Ca-rich phase in the form CaZn13. Cytotoxicity assessment showed that the cells’ metabolic activity on the tested alloys was adequate at over 90%, which was comparable to the cells’ metabolic activity on an inert reference alloy Ti-6Al-4V.

Abstract
Recent years have witnessed surging demand for bone repair/regeneration implants due to the increasing number of bone defects caused by trauma, cancer, infection, and arthritis worldwide. In addition to bone autografts and allografts, biomaterial substitutes have been widely used in clinical practice. Personalized implants with precise and personalized control of shape, porosity, composition, surface chemistry, and mechanical properties will greatly facilitate the regeneration of bone tissue and satiate the clinical needs. Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, also known as 3D printing, are drawing fast growing attention in the fabrication of implants or scaffolding materials due to their capability of manufacturing complex and irregularly shaped scaffolds in repairing bone defects in clinical practice. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of recent progress in the development of materials and techniques used in the additive manufacturing of bone scaffolds. In addition, clinical application, pre-clinical trials and future prospects of AM based bone implants are also summarized and discussed.
