DNA damage caused by cobalt chromium and ceramic orthopaedic wear debris across a model placental barrier : an in vitro study
Metal-on-metal and ceramic-on-ceramic hip replacements generate low volumes of wear debris and have been used increasingly in younger, more physically demanding patients. Metal-on-metal implants generate micron-sized and nano-sized particles of cobalt chromium alloy (CoCr) and ions of cobalt (Co) an...
