document: In Vivo Prevention of Implant-Associated Infections Caused by Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria through Biofunctionalization of Additively Manufactured Porous Titanium

Additively manufactured (AM) porous titanium implants may have an increased risk of implant-associated infection (IAI) due to their huge internal surfaces. However, the same surface, when biofunctionalized, can be used to prevent IAI. Here, we used a rat implant infection model to evaluate the biocompatibility and infection prevention...

document: The response of human macrophages to 3D printed titanium antibacterial implants does not affect the osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs
Garmendia Urdalleta, A. (author), van Poll, M.A. (author), Fahy, Niamh (author), Witte-Bouma, Janneke (author), van Wamel, Willem (author), Apachitei, I. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author), Fratila-Apachitei, E.L. (author), Farrell, Eric (author)
Macrophage responses following the implantation of orthopaedic implants are essential for successful implant integration in the body, partly through intimate crosstalk with human marrow stromal cells (hMSCs) in the process of new bone formation. Additive manufacturing (AM) and plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) in the presence of silver...
