Both Enhanced Biocompatibility and Antibacterial Activity in Ag-Decorated TiO(2) Nanotubes

In this study, Ag is electron-beam evaporated to modify the topography of anodic TiO(2) nanotubes of different diameters to obtain an implant with enhanced antibacterial activity and biocompatibility. We found that highly hydrophilic as-grown TiO(2) nanotubes became poorly hydrophilic with Ag incorp...
