Combining Sandblasting, Alkaline Etching, and Collagen Immobilization to Promote Cell Growth on Biomedical Titanium Implants

Our objective in this study was to promote the growth of bone cells on biomedical titanium (Ti) implant surfaces via surface modification involving sandblasting, alkaline etching, and type I collagen immobilization using the natural cross-linker genipin. The resulting surface was characterized in te...
