Various Biomaterials and Techniques for Improving Antibacterial Response

Abstract: The majority of failures in prosthetic implants and devices are caused by infections. Microbial infections are one of the major causes of these failures. The present article reviews various techniques such as modification in surface chemistry/composition and tailored structures (micro to nano) for improving the antibacterial response of prosthetic implants. In addition, the application of external stimulants such as magnetic and electric fields, as well as polarization, is recently realized as a fairly appeali… Show more

“…The surface modification using HA-ZnO nanocomposite can reduce ions leaching from a metal alloy and prevents the bacteria colonization over a bioimplant surface (Figure 4c) [118]. The experimental investigation suggested that the number of bacterial colonies could be reduced to 13% from 50.45% when ZnO content was increased from 1.5% to 30% (wt) in a HA-ZnO nanocomposite.…”

“…Nanomaterials are the advanced materials that could be effectively utilized to improve the surface and bulk properties of orthopedic bioimplants. A class of nanomaterials in response to electric/magnetic fields or polarization exhibit anti-bacterial properties without affecting the surface chemistry of bioimplants [118]. Nanotechnologies could improve the antibacterial response of the prosthetic bioimplants, which include compositional modification, surface chemistry alteration, as well as the application of properly tuned external stimuli [7,118].…”
