One strategy to increase the biocompatibility and consequently generate greater osteogenesis is to modify the surfaces of implants to alter the process of the bone tissue repair. Surface modifications in titanium implants were proposed using organic bifunctional spacers (3-mercaptopropionic acid, MPA, and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, APTMS) or direct albumin (BSA) immobilization. Chemical immobilization of BSA, either physically or covalently, on TiO2 substrates showed similar surface chemistry without altering long-term cellular interaction. Furthermore, TiO2-APTMS substrate with -NH2 groups on the surface more efficiently interacts with components of the extracellular matrix, presenting high cell viability at 48 h and better viability and mineralization results.39-50eng3- Mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS)Albumin adsorption and bone implant materialsTitaniumTitanium dioxideArtigo10.1016/j.colsurfa.2018.12.028Acesso restrito2-s2.0-8505879427713538624145320050000-0002-7734-4069
