Surface Functionalization of Orthopedic Titanium Implants with Bone Sialoprotein.

Surface Functionalization of Orthopedic Titanium Implants with Bone Sialoprotein.

Orthopedic implant failure due to aseptic loosening and mechanical instability remains a major problem in total joint replacement. Improving osseointegration at the bone-implant interface may reduce micromotion and loosening. Bone sialoprotein (BSP) has been shown to enhance bone formation when coat...
