  1. 1. Bioactive Coatings and Antibacterial Approaches for Titanium Medical Implants

    Författare :Oscar Janson; Ken Welch; Pentti Tengvall; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioactivity; antibacterial; titanium; hydrogen peroxide; hydroxyapatite; biomaterial; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to characterize and manufacture coatings and surfaces with antibacterial properties and retained or enhanced bioactivity and biocompatibility. The aim was also to study the optimal composition and parameters of mixtures for debridement of bacterial biofilms on titanium surfaces. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Antibacterial Strategies for Titanium Biomaterials

    Författare :Erik Unosson; Ken Welch; Håkan Engqvist; Timo Närhi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Titanium; silver; biomaterial; antibacterial; photocatalysis; hydrogen peroxide; reactive oxygen species; combinatorial materials science; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Titanium and titanium based alloys are widely used in dentistry and orthopedics to replace hard tissue and to mend broken bones. It has become a material of choice due to its low density, high strength, good biocompatibility and its capacity to integrate closely with the bone. LÄS MER

  3. 3. New strategies for multifunctional antibacterial materials

    Författare :Hengzhi Ruan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hydrogel; antibacterial coatings; multifunctional materials;

    Sammanfattning : Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are responsible for significant financial and human costs in healthcare systems. Therefore, a substantial amount of research has been devoted to developing biopolymer-based strategies that prevent bacterial attachment and biofilm formation on surfaces. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Bioactive Surgical Implant Coatings with Optional Antibacterial Function

    Författare :Mirjam Lilja; Maria Strømme; Håkan Engqvist; Håvard Haugen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydroxyapatite; titanium dioxide; photocatalysis; antibacterial effect; antibiotic release; biomimetic coating; co-precipitation; tobramycin;

    Sammanfattning : Device associated infections are a growing problem in the field of orthopaedics and dentistry. Bacteria adhering to implant surfaces and subsequent biofilm formation are challenging to treat with systemic administered antibiotics. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Antibacterial surface coatings for biomedical applications

    Författare :Saba Atefyekta; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Antimicrobial surfaces; mesoporous titania; elastin-like polypeptide; antimicrobial peptide; antibiotic delivery;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past decades there has been a significant increase in the diversity and function of biomaterials. Today, medical practices utilize a large number of biomaterials in the form of medical devices and implants. However, one major obstacle that limits the efficiency of biomaterials is their susceptibility to develop infection. LÄS MER
