A non-antibiotic coating consisting of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and levulinic acid (LA) with different concentrations was prepared by the authors on the zinc–aluminium alloy (ZA6-1) using a wet chemistry treatment for orthopaedic application. The influence of SDS/LA concentrations on the surface morphology, composition and performance of the developed coating was investigated. The results showed that as-prepared coating on a zinc alloy surface could improve the substrate's corrosion resistance and increase the degradation rate from 0.82 to 19.70 μm/year upon raising the SDS/LA concentration. Furthermore, higher hydrophilicity (<14°), better cell proliferation (>100%) and morphology, as well as good cell adhesion and differentiation (ALP >95% for 7 days) were observed on coated zinc alloys. The increased SDS/LA concentration slightly weakens the biocompatibility and enhances the antibacterial performance of coated zinc alloys due to the synergistic effect of SDS/LA.

To address this problem, passive and negative strategies have been proposed in the preceding decades. The integration of creatures and nature has been continuously perfected during biological evolution. Unique structure characteristics, material properties, and special functions of marine organisms can provide inexhaustible inspirations to solve this intractable problem of drag reduction. Therefore, a simple and low-cost laser ablation method was proposed. A multi-scale and multi-level riblet (MSLR) surface inspired by the denticles of the sharkskin was fabricated by controlling the density of the laser path and ablation times. The morphology and topographic features were characterised using an electron microscope and a scanning white-light interfering profilometer. Then, the drag reduction capacity of the bionic riblet surface was measured in a circulating water tunnel. Finally, the mechanism of drag reduction was analysed by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The results show that the MSLR surface has a stable drag reduction capacity with an increase in Reynold (Re) number which was contributed by high-low velocity stripes formed on the MSLR surface. This study can provide a reference for fabricating spatial riblets with efficient drag reduction at different values of Re and improving marine antifouling.</p>","PeriodicalId":52235,"journal":{"name":"Biosurface and Biotribology","volume":"10 1","pages":"7-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/bsb2.12076","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140188494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results indicate that as‐deposited coatings can efficiently decrease the degradation rate of ZA6‐1 from 0.52 to 0.16 mm/year, and the addition of LYS weakens the coating resistance, while the addition of PTH enhances the coating resistance.

This study aimed to elucidate the impact of surface roughness of CCM on the attachment and proliferation of osteoblasts. CCM samples with different values of surface rouges were prepared by polishing. MC3T3‐E1 mouse osteoblasts were used for cell culture experiments. Cell attachment, morphology, and the expression of actin stress fibres, vinculin, and distribution of yes‐associated protein were analysed. Our results suggest that surface roughness does not significantly affect cell attachment and proliferation on CCM, unlike on titanium. Thus implies that other properties of CCM, such as physicochemical properties, may play a more substantial role in modulating cell behaviour. This study provides important insights into the design of CCM implants, suggesting that approaches beyond tuning surface roughness may be necessary to improve biocompatibility and osseointegration.","PeriodicalId":52235,"journal":{"name":"Biosurface and Biotribology","volume":" 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135141765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To overcome these limitations, ultra‐small, highly stable, and bioactive SeNPs were synthesised based on an in‐situ hybridisation strategy by using polyphenol‐grafted‐chitosan (GA‐CS) to control and restrict crystal growth of Se nanoparticles. The resultant GA‐CS@nSe exhibited an average particle size of ∼30 nm and was highly stable in aqueous solutions. In addition, GA‐CS@nSe displayed improved biocompatibility and enhanced antioxidative activity.

The physical and chemical properties and corrosion resistance of the coating were analysed in depth, and its biocompatibility was preliminarily explored in vitro. The results showed that the polyphenol (EGCG) conversion coating constructed on the AZ31 could successfully induce the formation of HA by complexing the phenolic hydroxyl group with calcium ions. The electrochemical and long‐term immersion experiments showed that the corrosion resistance of EGCG/HA composite coating was significantly improved. The self‐corrosion current density, hydrogen evolution and the increase of pH value of AZ31‐EGCG/HA were significantly lower than those of AZ31. On the basis of inhibiting the excessive corrosion of the substrate, the composite coating significantly improves the compatibility of pre‐osteoblasts, supports the adhesion and spreading and effectively reduces the haemolysis rate to less than 5%.
