Synthesis and deposition of silver nanoparticles on porous titanium substrates for biomedical applications
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
Ti implants are highly biocompatible and allow orderly bone growth but, unfortunately, in the first five years after implantation, 5–10% of them fail due to poor osseointegration and to the presence of bacterial infections ...
Article
Fabrication and characterization of superficially modified porous dental implants
(Elsevier, 2021-02)
Stress-shielding and loosening compromise the success of dental implants under real-life service conditions. This work evaluates the mechanical behavior of superficially modified porous titanium dental implants fabricated ...
Article
Biofunctionalization of Porous Ti Substrates Coated with Ag Nanoparticles for Potential Antibacterial Behavior
(MDPI, 2021-04)
Ti prosthesis have shown better biological compatibility, mechanical performance, and resistance to corrosion in cases of bone replacements. Nevertheless, fully dense Ti in connection with bone-host tissues show stress-shielding ...

Tribo-mechanical and cellular behavior of superficially modified porous titanium samples using femtosecond laser
(Elsevier, 2021-09)
In this work, the surface of porous titanium samples obtained by the space-holder technique was treated with a femtosecond laser to improve their osseointegration. Instrumented micro-indentation and scratch test were ...

Biocompatibility and Cellular Behavior of TiNbTa Alloy with Adapted Rigidity for the Replacement of Bone Tissue
(MDPI, 2021-01)
In this work, the mechanical and bio-functional behavior of a TiNbTa alloy is evaluated as a potential prosthetic biomaterial used for cortical bone replacement. The results are compared with the reference Ti c.p. used as ...
