Abstract
In this study, a mineralized collagen coating was electrolytically deposited onto titanium. The results showed that the mineralized collagen coatings with dense or porous morphology could be obtained. The mineral phase was mainly hydroxyapatite. In vitro evaluation showed the mineralized collagen coatings were stable in Kokubo's simulated body fluid, and displayed a good cytocompatibility in the cell multiplication test. The mineralized collagen coatings loaded with vancomycin hydrochloride showed an inhibitory effect on the growth of S. aureus. The present mineralized collagen coating demonstrates good suitability for surface modification of orthopedic metal implants.
