Electrophoretic Deposition of Calcium Phosphates on Carbon–Carbon Composite Implants: Morphology, Phase/Chemical Composition and Biological Reactions

Acceso Abierto

Abstract:

Despite a long period of application of metal implants, carbon-carbon medical composites are also widely used for bone defect prosthesis in surgery, dentistry, and oncology. Such implants might demonstrate excellent mechanical properties, but their biocompatibility and integration efficiency into the host should be improved. As a method of enhancing, the electrophoretic deposition of fine-dispersed hydroxyapatite (HAp) on porous carbon substrates might be recommended. With electron microscopy, energy dispersion X-ray and Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction, we found that the deposition and subsequent heat post-treatment (up to the temperature of 400 °C for 1 h) did not lead to any significant phase and chemical transformations of raw non-stoichometric HAp. The Ca/P ratio was ≈1.51 in the coatings. Their non-toxicity, cyto- and biocompatibility were confirmed by in vitro and in vivo studies and no adverse reactions and side effects had been detected in the test. The proposed coating and subsequent heat treatment procedures provided improved biological responses in terms of resorption and biocompatibility had been confirmed by histological, magnetic resonance and X-ray tomographic ex vivo studies on the resected implant-containing biopsy samples from the BDF1 mouse model. The obtained results are expected to be useful for modern medical material science and clinical applications.
