Both Enhanced Biocompatibility and Antibacterial Activity in Ag-Decorated TiO2 Nanotubes
In this study, Ag is electron-beam evaporated to modify the topography of anodic TiO2 nanotubes of different diameters to obtain an implant with enhanced antibacterial activity and biocompatibility. We found that highly hydrophilic as-grown TiO2 nanotubes became poorly hydrophilic with Ag incorporat...
