Synthesis and characterization of collagen-hydroxyapatite immobilized on polydopamine grafted stainless steel

Hydroxyapatite (HA) and collagen have been coated on metallic implants to accelerate osseointegration. Most methods to coat HA require high sintering temperature, high cost and high energy power while the methods to coat collagen commonly produce unstable coating. Therefore, in this study, a polydop...
