Construction of Mussel-Inspired Dopamine–Zn2+ Coating on Titanium Oxide Nanotubes to Improve Hemocompatibility, Cytocompatibility, and Antibacterial Activity

Zinc ions (Zn2+) are a highly potent bioactive factor with a broad spectrum of physiological functions. In situ continuous and controllable release of Zn2+ from the biomaterials can effectively improve the biocompatibility and antibacterial activity. In the present study, inspired by the adhesion an...
