Abstract
Objectives: The technique of guided bone regeneration (GBR) has been widely used in the field of reconstructive dentistry to address hard tissue deficiency. The objective of this research was to manufacture a novel bi-layered asymmetric membrane that incorporates demineralized dentin matrix (DDM), a bioactive bone replacement derived from dentin, in order to achieve both soft tissue isolation and hard tissue regeneration simultaneously. Methods: DDM particles were harvested from healthy, caries-free permanent teeth. The electrospinning technique was utilized to synthesize bi-layered DDM-loaded PLGA/PLA (DPP) membranes. We analyzed the DPP bilayer membranes' surface topography, physicochemical properties and degradation ability. Rat skull critical size defects (CSDs) were constructed to investigate in vivo bone regeneration. Results: The synthesized DPP bilayer membranes possessed suitable surface characteristics, acceptable mechanical properties, good hydrophilicity, favorable apatite forming ability and suitable degradability. Micro-computed tomography (CT) showed significantly more new bone formation in the rat skull defects implanted with the DPP bilayer membranes. Histological evaluation further revealed that the bone was more mature with denser bone trabeculae. In addition, the DPP bilayer membrane significantly promoted the expression of the OCN matrix protein in vivo. Conclusions: The DPP bilayer membranes exhibited remarkable biological safety and osteogenic activity in vivo and showed potential as a prospective candidate for GBR applications in the future.

Abstract
Design and material research continues to increase dental implants' success rates, which is a widely applied treatment type. The size and morphology of the implant-bone interface are essential for implant stability. Our study produced a dental implant with two artificial tooth roots from NiTi alloy to increase the implant-bone contact surface. The properties of NiTi alloy, such as transformation temperature and composition, were determined by material characterization tests. Using NiTi alloy's shape memory effect, these artificial roots at body temperature were programmed with appropriate heat treatments for the self-fitting feature. Dental-implant-like models are coated with TiN to prevent Ni ion release. The corrosion tests were performed in Ringer's solution to determine the effect of TiN coating on Ni ion release. The nickel ion emission values showed that the TiN coating inhibited the release. In addition, it was determined that the TiN coating increased the shape memory transformation time of the NiTi alloy. In in vitro tests of NiTi and TiN-coated NiTi implants, it was observed that they completed self-fitting by deforming the trabecular bone, but the placement in the cortical bone was not complete. During the use of a shape memory implant, it should complete its transformation without contacting the cortical bone and should not cause a stress concentration.

Electroless Deposits of ZnO and Hybrid ZnO/Ag Nanoparticles on Mg-Ca0.3 Alloy Surface: Multiscale Characterization. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
ZnO and hybrid of ZnO/Ag structures in the nanometer size were electroless deposited on the Mg-Ca0.3 alloy surface, achieved from aqueous solutions (10−3 M at 21 °C) of ZnO (suspension), Zn(NO3)2 and AgNO3. The surface characterization of the deposits was carried out by Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV-Visible and Raman spectroscopy. The nanoparticles (NPs) area size distribution analysis revealed that the average of ZnO-NPs was ~85 nm. Likewise, the Ag-NPs of electroless deposits had an average area size of ~100 nm and nucleated in the vicinity of ZnO-NPs as Ag+ ions have been attracted by the negatively charged O2− atoms of the Zn-O dipole. The ZnO-NPs had the wurtzite structure, as indicated by Raman spectroscopy analysis and XRD complementary analysis. The UV-Visible spectroscopy analysis gave a peak at ~320 nm associated with the decrease in the imaginary part (k) of the refractive index of Ag-NPs. On the Mg-Ca0.3 surface, MgO, Mg(OH)2 and MgCO3 are present due to the Mg-matrix. XRD spectra of Ag-NPs indicated the presence of planes arranged with the FCC hexagonal structure. The reported hybrid ZnO/Ag electroless deposits of NPs are of interest for temporary implant devices, providing antibacterial properties to Mg-Ca0.3 surface, a widely used biodegradable material.

Novel Hydrophobic Nanostructured Antibacterial Coatings for Metallic Surface Protection. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
A simple and cost-efficient method to modify different surfaces in order to improve their bioactivity, corrosion and wear resistance proved to be sol-gel coatings. The silane layers have been shown to be effective in the protection of steel, aluminum or magnesium alloys and copper and copper alloys. Moreover, it has been found that the adding of different inorganic nanoparticles into silica films leads to increasing their performance regarding corrosion protection. In this study, we fabricated, a simple sol-gel method, transparent mono- and bi-layered hydrophobic coatings with simultaneous antibacterial, hydrophobic and anti-corrosive properties for the protection of metallic surfaces against the action of air pollutants or from biological attacks of pathogens. The first layer (the base) of the coating contains silver (Ag) or zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with an antibacterial effect. The second layer includes zinc oxide nanoparticles with flower-like morphology to increase the hydrophobicity of the coating and to improve corrosion-resistant properties. The second layer of the coating contains a fluorinated silica derivative, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl triethoxysilane (PFOTES), which contributes to the hydrophobic properties of the final coating by means of its hydrophobic groups. The mono- and bi-layered coatings with micro/nano rough structures have been applied by brushing on various substrates, including metallic surfaces (copper, brass and mild steel) and glass (microscope slides). The as-prepared coatings showed improved hydrophobic properties (water CA > 90°) when compared with the untreated substrates while maintaining the transparent aspect. The corrosion resistance tests revealed significantly lower values of the corrosion rates recorded for all the protected metallic surfaces, with the lowest values being measured for the bi-layered coatings containing ZnO particles, both in the first and in the second layers of the coating. Considering the antibacterial activity, the most effective were the AOAg-II and AOZnO-II coatings, which exhibited the highest reduction of microbial growth.

Abstract
Adhesion of bacteria on biomedical implant surfaces is a prerequisite for biofilm formation, which may increase the chances of infection and chronic inflammation. In this study, we employed a novel electrospray-based technique to develop an antibacterial surface by efficiently depositing silica homogeneously onto polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film to achieve hydrophobic and anti-adhesive properties. We evaluated its potential application in inhibiting bacterial adhesion using both Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria. These silica-deposited PET surfaces could provide hydrophobic surfaces with a water contact angle greater than 120° as well as increased surface roughness (root mean square roughness value of 82.50 ± 16.22 nm and average roughness value of 65.15 ± 15.26 nm) that could significantly reduce bacterial adhesion by approximately 66.30% and 64.09% for E. coli and S. aureus, respectively, compared with those on plain PET surfaces. Furthermore, we observed that silica-deposited PET surfaces showed no detrimental effects on cell viability in human dermal fibroblasts, as confirmed by MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide and live/dead assays. Taken together, such approaches that are easy to synthesize, cost effective, and efficient, and could provide innovative strategies for preventing bacterial adhesion on biomedical implant surfaces in the clinical setting.
