Antibacterial Optimization of Highly Deformed Titanium Alloys for Spinal Implants

Antibacterial Optimization of Highly Deformed Titanium Alloys for Spinal Implants

The goal of the work was to develop materials dedicated to spine surgery that minimized the potential for infection originating from the transfer of bacteria during long surgeries. The bacteria form biofilms, causing implant loosening, pain and finally, a risk of paralysis for patients. Our strategy...
