Cu(2+) Release from Polylactic Acid Coating on Titanium Reduces Bone Implant-Related Infection
Implant-related infection (IRI) is a major problem in orthopedics. Copper (Cu) is an essential trace element with strong bactericidal activity and, thus, presents potential for reducing IRI. The present study explored a straightforward strategy for releasing Cu(2+) from titanium (Ti) implants, and w...
