Development, characterization and biological studies of Mn-doped ZnO/Ti biomaterials for regenerative medicine.

ABSTRACT: Bone disease diseases massively affect the world population, with more than two million of surgeries performed worldwide every year. Bone has limited capability to repair very large defects and the use of engineered biomaterials isa mandatory but some clinical issues are observed like rejection and possible infections. Therefore, the development of new biomaterials promoting bone tissue repair and prevent post-surgery infections represents one of the main challenge in regenerative medicine. Titanium is the most used material for implants but it not free from infections. Therefore the modification of Ti surface could represent a valuable strategy to improve both antibacterial and osteo-inductive properties. In this work, we developed a Mn-doped ZnO/Ti biomaterial and evaluated its ability t
