Chromium oxide coatings with the potential for eliminating the risk of chromium ion release in orthopaedic implants.

ABSTRACT: Chromium oxide coatings prepared by radiofrequency reactive magnetron sputtering on stainless steel substrates were exposed to Ringer's physiological solution and tested for their electrochemical corrosion stability using an open circuit potential measurement, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and Mott-Schottky analysis. The coatings were found to be predominantly Cr2O3, based on the observation of the dominance of [Formula: see text] and Eg symmetric modes in our Raman spectroscopic investigation and the Eu vibrational modes in our Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic measurements on the coatings. We investigated for the presence of chromium ions in Ringer's solution after all of the above electrochemical tests using atomic absorption spectroscopy, without finding a trace of chromium ions at the ppm level for coatings tested under open circuit and at the lower potentials implants are likely to experience in the human body. The coatings were further exposed to Ringer's solution for one month and tested for adhesion strength changes, and we found that they retained substantial adhesion to the substrates. We expect this finding to be significant for future orthopaedic implants where chromium ion release is still a major challenge.

Potential side effects of antibacterial coatings in orthopaedic implants: A systematic review of clinical studies.

Project description:Objective: The systematic review aimed to determine the potential side effects of antibacterial coatings in orthopaedic implants. Methods: Publications were searched in the databases of Embase, PubMed, Web of Science and Cochrane Library using predetermined keywords up to 31 October 2022. Clinical studies reporting side effects of the surface or coating materials were included. Results: A total of 23 studies (20 cohort studies and three case reports) reporting the concerns about the side effects of antibacterial coatings were identified. Three types of coating materials, silver, iodine and gentamicin were included. All of studies raised the concerns regarding safety of antibacterial coatings, and the occurrence of adverse events was observed in seven studies. The main side effect of silver coatings was the development of argyria. For iodine coatings, only one anaphylactic case was reported as an adverse event. No systemic or other general side effects were reported for gentamicin. Conclusion: Clinical studies on the side effects of antibacterial coatings were limited. Based on the available outcomes, the most reported side effects of antibacterial coatings in clinical use were argyria with silver coatings. However, researchers should always pay attention to the potential side effects of antibacterial materials, such as systematic or local toxicity and allergy.

Engineered protein coatings to improve the osseointegration of dental and orthopaedic implants.

Project description:Here we present the design of an engineered, elastin-like protein (ELP) that is chemically modified to enable stable coatings on the surfaces of titanium-based dental and orthopaedic implants by novel photocrosslinking and solution processing steps. The ELP includes an extended RGD sequence to confer bio-signaling and an elastin-like sequence for mechanical stability. ELP thin films were fabricated on cp-Ti and Ti6Al4V surfaces using scalable spin and dip coating processes with photoactive covalent crosslinking through a carbene insertion mechanism. The coatings withstood procedures mimicking dental screw and hip replacement stem implantations, a key metric for clinical translation. They promoted rapid adhesion of MG63 osteoblast-like cells, with over 80% adhesion after 24 h, compared to 38% adhesion on uncoated Ti6Al4V. MG63 cells produced significantly more mineralization on ELP coatings compared to uncoated Ti6Al4V. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) had an earlier increase in alkaline phosphatase activity, indicating more rapid osteogenic differentiation and mineral deposition on adhesive ELP coatings. Rat tibia and femur in vivo studies demonstrated that cell-adhesive ELP-coated implants increased bone-implant contact area and interfacial strength after one week. These results suggest that ELP coatings withstand surgical implantation and promote rapid osseointegration, enabling earlier implant loading and potentially preventing micromotion that leads to aseptic loosening and premature implant failure.

Antimicrobial TiO<sub>2</sub> nanocomposite coatings for surfaces, dental and orthopaedic implants.

Project description:Engineering of self-disinfecting surfaces to constrain the spread of SARS-CoV-2 is a challenging task for the scientific community because the human coronavirus spreads through respiratory droplets. Titania (TiO2) nanocomposite antimicrobial coatings is one of the ideal remedies to disinfect pathogens (virus, bacteria, fungi) from common surfaces under light illumination. The photocatalytic disinfection efficiency of recent TiO2 nanocomposite antimicrobial coatings for surfaces, dental and orthopaedic implants are emphasized in this review. Mostly, inorganic metals (e.g. copper (Cu), silver (Ag), manganese (Mn), etc), non-metals (e.g. fluorine (F), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P)) and two-dimensional materials (e.g. MXenes, MOF, graphdiyne) were incorporated with TiO2 to regulate the charge transfer mechanism, surface porosity, crystallinity, and the microbial disinfection efficiency. The antimicrobial activity of TiO2 coatings was evaluated against the most crucial pathogenic microbes such as Escherichia coli, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Legionella pneumophila, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, T2 bacteriophage, H1N1, HCoV-NL63, vesicular stomatitis virus, bovine coronavirus. Silane functionalizing agents and polymers were used to coat the titanium (Ti) metal implants to introduce superhydrophobic features to avoid microbial adhesion. TiO2 nanocomposite coatings in dental and orthopaedic metal implants disclosed exceptional bio-corrosion resistance, durability, biocompatibility, bone-formation capability, and long-term antimicrobial efficiency. Moreover, the commercial trend, techno-economics, challenges, and prospects of antimicrobial nanocomposite coatings are also discussed briefly.

Development of Hydroxyapatite Coatings for Orthopaedic Implants from Colloidal Solutions: Part 2-Detailed Characterisation of the Coatings and Their Growth Mechanism.

Project description:This study is the second part of a two-part study whereby supersaturated solutions of calcium and phosphate ions generate well-defined hydroxyapatite coatings for orthopaedic implants. An 'ideal' process solution is selected from Part 1, and the detailed characterisation of films produced from this solution is undertaken here in Part 2. Analysis is presented on the hydroxyapatite produced, in both powder form and as a film upon titanium substrates representative of orthopaedic implants. From thermal analysis data, it is shown that there is bound and interstitial water present in the hydroxyapatite. Nuclear magnetic resonance data allow for the distinction between an amorphous and a crystalline component of the material. As hydroxyapatite coatings are generated, their growth mechanism is tracked across repeated process runs. A clear understanding of the growth mechanism is achieved though crystallinity and electron imaging data. Transmission electron imaging data support the proposed crystal growth and deposition mechanism. All of the data conclude that this process has a clear propensity to grow the hydroxyapatite phase of octacalcium phosphate. The investigation of the hydroxyapatite coating and its growth mechanism establish that a stable and reproducible process window has been identified. Precise control is achieved, leading to the successful formation of the desired hydroxyapatite films.

Development of Hydroxyapatite Coatings for Orthopaedic Implants from Colloidal Solutions: Part 1-Effect of Solution Concentration and Deposition Kinetics.

Project description:This study introduces and explores the use of supersaturated solutions of calcium and phosphate ions to generate well-defined hydroxyapatite coatings for orthopaedic implants. The deposition of hydroxyapatite is conducted via several solutions of metastable precursors that precipitate insoluble hydroxyapatite minerals at a substrate-solution interface. Solutions of this nature are intrinsically unstable, but this paper outlines process windows in terms of time, temperature, concentration and pH in which coating deposition is controlled via the stop/go reaction. To understand the kinetics of the deposition process, comparisons based on ionic strength, particle size, electron imaging, elemental analyses and mass of the formed coating for various deposition solutions are carried out. This comprehensive dataset enables the measurement of deposition kinetics and identification of an optimum solution and its reaction mechanism. This study has established stable and reproducible process windows, which are precisely controlled, leading to the successful formation of desired hydroxyapatite films. The data demonstrate that this process is a promising and highly repeatable method for forming hydroxyapatites with desirable thickness, morphology and chemical composition at low temperatures and low capital cost compared to the existing techniques.

Identification of mesenchymal stromal cell survival responses to antimicrobial silver ion concentrations released from orthopaedic implants.

Project description:Antimicrobial silver (Ag+) coatings on orthopaedic implants may reduce infection rates, but should not be to the detriment of regenerative cell populations, primarily mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs). We determined intramedullary silver release profiles in vivo, which were used to test relevant Ag+ concentrations on MSC function in vitro. We measured a rapid elution of Ag+ from intramedullary pins in a rat femoral implantation model, delivering a maximum potential concentration of 7.8 µM, which was below toxic levels determined for MSCs in vitro (EC50, 33 µM). Additionally, we present in vitro data of the reduced colonisation of implants by Staphylococcus aureus. MSCs exposed to Ag+ prior to/during osteogenic differentiation were not statistically affected. Notably, at clonal density, the colony-forming capacity of MSCs was significantly reduced in the presence of 10 µM Ag+, suggesting that a subpopulation of clonal MSCs was sensitive to Ag+ exposure. At a molecular level, surviving colony-forming MSCs treated with Ag+ demonstrated a significant upregulation of components of the peroxiredoxin/thioredoxin pathway and processes involved in glutathione metabolism compared to untreated controls. Inhibition of glutathione synthesis using L-buthionine sulfoxamine eliminated MSC clonogenicity in the presence of Ag+, which was rescued by exogenous glutathione.

Dual functional polyelectrolyte multilayer coatings for implants: permanent microbicidal base with controlled release of therapeutic agents.

Project description:Here we present a new bifunctional layer-by-layer (LbL) construct made by combining a permanent microbicidal polyelectrolyte multilayered (PEM) base film with a hydrolytically degradable PEM top film that offers controlled and localized delivery of therapeutics. Two degradable film architectures are presented: (1) bolus release of an antibiotic (gentamicin) to eradicate initial infection at the implant site, or (2) sustained delivery of an anti-inflammatory drug (diclofenac) to cope with inflammation at the site of implantation due to tissue injury. Each degradable film was built on top of a permanent base film that imparts the implantable device surface with microbicidal functionality that prevents the formation of biofilms. Controlled-delivery of gentamicin was demonstrated over hours and that of diclofenac over days. Both drugs retained their efficacy upon release. The permanent microbicidal base film was biocompatible with A549 epithelial cancer cells and MC3T3-E1 osteoprogenitor cells, while also preventing bacteria attachment from turbid media for the entire duration of the two weeks studied. The microbicidal base film retains its functionality after the biodegradable films have completely degraded. The versatility of these PEM films and their ability to prevent biofilm formation make them attractive as coatings for implantable devices.

Engineering the Multi-Enzymatic Activity of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticle Coatings for the Antioxidant Protection of Implants.

Project description:Imbalance of oxidants is a universal contributor to the failure of implanted devices and tissues. A sustained oxidative environment leads to cytotoxicity, prolonged inflammation, and ultimately host rejection of implanted devices/grafts. The incorporation of antioxidant materials can inhibit this redox/inflammatory cycle and enhance implant efficacy. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONP) is a highly promising agent that exhibits potent, ubiquitous, and self-renewable antioxidant properties. Integrating CONP as surface coatings provides ease in translating antioxidant properties to various implants/grafts. Herein, we describe the formation of CONP coatings, generated via the sequential deposition of CONP and alginate, and the impact of coating properties, pH, and polymer molecular weight, on their resulting redox profile. Investigation of CONP deposition, layer formation, and coating uniformity/thickness on their resulting oxidant scavenging activity identified key parameters for customizing global antioxidant properties. Results found lower molecular weight alginates and physiological pH shift CONP activity to a higher H2O2 to O2 --scavenging capability. The antioxidant properties measured for these various coatings translated to distinct antioxidant protection to the underlying encapsulated cells. Information gained from this work can be leveraged to tailor coatings towards specific oxidant-scavenging applications and prolong the function of medical devices and cellular implants.

Substituted hydroxyapatite coatings of bone implants.

Project description:Surface modification of orthopedic and dental implants has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy to accelerate bone healing at early implantation times. Among the different alternatives, coating implants with a layer of hydroxyapatite (HAp) is one of the most used techniques, due to its excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductive behavior. The composition and crystalline structure of HAp allow for numerous ionic substitutions that provide added value, such as antibiotic properties or osteoinduction. In this article, we will review and critically analyze the most important advances in the field of substituted hydroxyapatite coatings. In recent years substituted HAp coatings have been deposited not only on orthopedic prostheses and dental implants, but also on macroporous scaffolds, thus expanding their applications towards bone regeneration therapies. Besides, the capability of substituted HAps to immobilize proteins and growth factors by non-covalent interactions has opened new possibilities for preparing hybrid coatings that foster bone healing processes. Finally, the most important in vivo outcomes will be discussed to understand the prospects of substituted HAp coatings from a clinical point of view.

Polydopamine-assisted surface modification for orthopaedic implants.

Project description:Along with the massive use of implants in orthopaedic surgeries in recent few decades, there has been a tremendous demand for the surface modification of the implants to avoid surgery failure and improve their function. Polydopamine (PDA), being able to adhere to almost all kinds of substrates and possessing copious functional groups for covalently immobilizing biomolecules and anchoring metal ions, has been widely used for surface modification of materials since its discovery in the last decade. PDA and its derivatives can be used for the surface modification of orthopaedic implants to modulate cellular responses, including cell spreading, migration, proliferation, and differentiation, and may thereby enhance the function of existing implants. In addition, the osseointegration and antimicrobial properties of orthopaedic implants may also be improved by PDA-based coatings. The aim of this review is to provide a brief overview of current advances of surface modification technologies for orthopaedic implants using PDA and its derivatives as a medium. Given the versatility of PDA-based adhesion, such PDA-assisted surface modification technologies will certainly benefit the development of new orthopaedic implants.The translational potential of this articleSurface treatments of orthopaedic implants, which are normally inert materials, are essential for their performance in vivo. This review summarizes recent advances in the surface modification of orthopaedic implants using facile and highly versatile techniques based on the use of polydopamine (PDA) and its derivatives.
