Abstract
The improvement of biodegradable metals is currently an active and promising research area for their capabilities in implant manufacturing. However, controlling their degradation rate once their surface is in contact with the physiological media is a challenge. Surface treatments are in the way of addressing the improvement of this control. Zinc is a biocompatible metal present in the human body as well as a metal widely used in coatings to prevent corrosion, due to its well-known metal protective action. These two outstanding characteristics make zinc coating worthy of consideration to improve the degradation behaviour of implants. Electrodeposition is one of the most practical and common technologies to create protective zinc coatings on metals. This article aims to review the effect of the different parameters involved in the electrochemical process on the topography and corrosion characteristics of the zinc coating. However, certainly, it also provides an actual and comprehensive description of the state-of-the-art of the use of electrodeposited zinc for biomedical applications, focusing on their capacity to protect against bacterial colonization and to allow cell adhesion and proliferation.

[PMID: 36986831 PMCID: PMC10053511 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15030970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Chronic wounds are a major concern for global health, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. As their occurrence is correlated with age and age-related comorbidities, their incidence in the population is set to increase in the forthcoming years. This burden is further worsened by the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which causes wound infections that are increasingly hard to treat with current antibiotics. Antimicrobial bionanocomposites are an emerging class of materials that combine the biocompatibility and tissue-mimicking properties of biomacromolecules with the antimicrobial activity of metal or metal oxide nanoparticles. Among these nanostructured agents, zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most promising for its microbicidal effects and its anti-inflammatory properties, and as a source of essential zinc ions. This review analyses the most recent developments in the field of nano-ZnO–bionanocomposite (nZnO-BNC) materials—mainly in the form of films, but also hydrogel or electrospun bandages—from the different preparation techniques to their properties and antibacterial and wound-healing performances. The effect of nanostructured ZnO on the mechanical, water and gas barrier, swelling, optical, thermal, water affinity, and drug-release properties are examined and linked to the preparation methods. Antimicrobial assays over a wide range of bacterial strains are extensively surveyed, and wound-healing studies are finally considered to provide a comprehensive assessment framework. While early results are promising, a systematic and standardised testing procedure for the comparison of antibacterial properties is still lacking, partly because of a not-yet fully understood antimicrobial mechanism. This work, therefore, allowed, on one hand, the determination of the best strategies for the design, engineering, and application of n-ZnO-BNC, and, on the other hand, the identification of the current challenges and opportunities for future research.

Abstract
Zinc oxide arouses considerable interest since it has many applications—in microelectronics, environmental decontaminations, biomedicine, photocatalysis, corrosion, etc. The present investigation describes the green synthesis of nanosized ZnO particles using a low-cost, ecologically friendly approach compared to the classical methods, which are aimed at limiting their harmful effects on the environment. In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were prepared using an extract of Mentha arvensis (MA) leaves as a stabilizing/reducing agent, followed by hydrothermal treatment at 180 °C. The resulting powder samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) phase analysis, infrared spectroscopy (IRS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The specific surface area and pore size distribution were measured by the Brunauer–Emmett–Taylor (BET) method. Electronic paramagnetic resonance spectra were recorded at room temperature and at 123 K by a JEOL JES-FA 100 EPR spectrometer. The intensity of the bands within the range of 400–1700 cm−1 for biosynthesized ZnO (BS-Zn) powders decreased with the increase in the Mentha arvensis extract concentration. Upon increasing the plant extract concentration, the relative proportion of mesopores in the BS-Zn samples also increased. It was established that the photocatalytic performance of the biosynthesized powders was dependent on the MA concentration in the precursor solution. According to EPR and PL analyses, it was proved that there was a presence of singly ionized oxygen vacancies (V0+) and zinc interstitials (Zni). The use of the plant extract led to changes in the morphology, phase composition, and structure of the ZnO particles, which were responsible for the increased photocatalytic rate of discoloration of Malachite Green dye.

Abstract
The development of bioactive coatings for orthopedic implants has been of great interest in recent years in order to achieve both early- and long-term osseointegration. Numerous bioactive materials have been investigated for this purpose, along with loading coatings with therapeutic agents (active compounds) that are released into the surrounding media in a controlled manner after surgery. This review initially focuses on the importance and usefulness of characterization techniques for bioactive coatings, allowing the detailed evaluation of coating properties and further improvements. Various advanced analytical techniques that have been used to characterize the structure, interactions, and morphology of the designed bioactive coatings are comprehensively described by means of time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), 3D tomography, quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), coating adhesion, and contact angle (CA) measurements. Secondly, the design of controlled-release systems, the determination of drug release kinetics, and recent advances in drug release from bioactive coatings are addressed as the evaluation thereof is crucial for improving the synthesis parameters in designing optimal bioactive coatings.

Abstract
The fabrication of polymeric composite hydrogel with hierarchical structure in a simple, controllable, and straightforward process poses great importance for manufacturing nanomaterials and subsequent applications. Herein, we report a one-step and template-free counterion exchange method to construct free-standing carboxylated cellulose nanofiber composite hydrogels. Metal ions were electrochemically and locally released from the electrode and chelated with carboxylated cellulose nanofibers, leading to the in-situ formation of composite hydrogels. The properties of composite hydrogels can be easily programmed by the type of electrode, current density, and electrodeposited suspension. Significantly, the composited hydrogels exhibited interconnected nanoporous structure, enhanced thermal degradation, improved mechanical strength and antibacterial activity. The results suggest great potential of anodic electrodeposition to fabricate nanofiber/metal composite hydrogels.

Abstract
Magnesium alloys have gained significant attention as degradable implant materials, but the fast and localized corrosion behavior leading to hydrogen gas evolution and alkaline poisoning limits their clinical application. In this research, the possibility of controlling the fast degradation rate of an experimental Mg-Si-Sr alloy by applying hybrid biopolymer chitosan (CS)-gelatin (G)-bioactive glass (BG) coatings was investigated. Electrophoretic deposition using alternating current fields (AC-EPD) was employed for surface coating and the influence of suspension parameters (biopolymer type and concentration, BG particle size), and key AC-EPD parameters (voltage amplitude, frequency, and time) on the coating quality were investigated. Stable suspensions of positively charged biopolymer/BG particles deposited on the Mg alloy coupled as a cathode during the high-amplitude peak. Furthermore, coating homogeneity improved with increasing peak-to-peak-voltage and the hybrid nature of the coatings was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Corrosion studies revealed a significantly decreased corrosion rate down to 0.08 mm/year for the Mg-Si-Sr alloy incorporating CS-G-BG b AC-EPD coating.

Abstract
In the present work, alginate-based mats with and without ZnO nanoparticles were prepared via an electrospinning technique and subjected to a washing-cross-linking process to obtain highly stable products characterized by thin and homogeneous nanofibers with a diameter of 100 ± 30 nm. Using a commercial collagen product as control, the biological response of the prepared mats was carefully evaluated with particular attention paid to the influence of the used cross-linking agent (Ca2+, Sr2+, or Ba2+ ions) and to the presence of nanofillers. Fibroblast and keratinocyte cultures successfully proved the safety of the prepared alginate-based mats, whereas ZnO nanoparticles were found to provide strong antibacteriostatic and antibacterial properties; above all, the strontium- and barium-cross-linked samples showed performances in terms of cell adhesion and growth very similar to those of the commercial collagen membrane despite them showing a significantly lower protein adsorption. Moreover, the mechanical and water-related properties of the strontium-cross-linked mats embedding ZnO nanoparticles were proven to be similar to those of human skin (i.e., Young modulus of 470 MPa and water vapor permeability of 3.8 × 10-12 g/m Pa s), thus proving the ability of the prepared mats to be able to endure considerable stress, maintaining at the same time the fundamental ability to remove exudates. Taking into account the obtained results, the proposed alginate-based products could lead to harmless and affordable surgical patches and wound dressing membranes with a simpler and safer production procedure than the commonly employed animal collagen-derived systems.

Abstract
The construction of polymeric nanocomponents into a hierarchical structure poses great importance for subsequent biomedical applications. Herein, we report for the first time the electroassembly of chitin nanoparticles (14 nm ± 3 nm from transmission electron microscopy) to construct thick and freestanding hydrogels, which can be further dried to obtain high porous and tough aerogels for wound healing. The electroassembly is a simple, straightforward, and controllable process, which crucially depends on the pH of the chitin nanoparticle suspension and the degree of deacetylation of chitin. Interestingly, the electroassembly of chitin nanoparticles is completely reversible, suggesting the physical assembly feature of the freestanding hydrogel. By using supercritical CO2 drying and freeze-drying, chitin aerogels and cryogels can be facilely obtained. Because of the intriguing features (i.e., large surface area, interconnected porous structure, and enhanced hydrophilicity), chitin aerogels demonstrate adorable performance to accelerate the healing of wounds.

A critical review of multifunctional titanium surfaces: New frontiers for improving osseointegration and host response, avoiding bacteria contamination. Acta Biomater 2018; 79:1-22.

Abstract
Evolution of metal implants progressively shifted the focus from adequate mechanical strength to improved biocompatibility and absence of toxicity and, finally, to fast osseointegration. Recently, new frontiers and challenges of Ti implants have been addressed to improvement of bioactivity, fighting of bacterial infection and biofilm formation, as well as modulation of inflammation. This is closely related to the clinical demand of multifunctional implants able to simultaneously have a number of specific responses with respect to body fluids, cells (osteoblasts, fibroblasts, macrophages) and pathogenic agents (bacteria, viruses). This complex system of multiple biological stimuli and surface responses is a major arena of the current research on biomaterials and biosurfaces. This review covers the strategies explored to this purpose since 2010 in the case of Ti and Ti alloys, considering that the number of related papers doubled about in the last seven years and no review has comprehensively covered this engaging research area yet. The different approaches followed for producing multifunctional Ti-based surfaces involve the use of thick and thin inorganic coatings, chemical surface treatments, and functionalization strategies coupled with organic coatings. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE According to the clinical demand of multifunctional implants able to simultaneously have a number of specific responses with respect to body fluids, cells and pathogenic agents, new frontiers of Ti implants have been addressed to improvement of bioactivity, fighting of bacterial infection and biofilm formation, as well as modulation of inflammation. Literature since 2010 is here reviewed. Several strategies for getting bioactive and antibacterial actions on Ti surfaces have been suggested, but they still need to be optimized with respect to several concerns. A further step will be to combine on the same surface a proven ability of modulation of inflammatory response. The achievement of multifunctional surfaces able to modulate inflammation and to promote osteogenesis is a grand challenge.

Abstract
The technique of anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) for strut grafting has become a widespread and actively applied for many cervical complaints including cervical degeneration of the intervertebral disks, cervical trauma, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and multilevel cervical spondylotic diseases. To avoid the complications of the old techniques, the construct stability and long anterior screw-plate designs of the bone strut have been improved by using effective biomaterials. The nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HAp) incorporated with biocompatible polymer matrixes is an effective biomedical material and creating a functional properties applied for different tissue replacements such as dental, hips, knees, tendon and ligaments and tissue repair for maxillofacial reconstruction, stabilization of the jaw bone and spinal fusion. In the present investigation, we have successfully designed cylindrical nano titanium dioxide (n-TiO2) interbody fusion with anterior plate fixation. The n-TiO2 incorporated HAp/ Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) nanocomposite strut has a superior mechanical properties and larger contact area with high fusion rates as compared with the HAp/PEEK strut in the absence of n-TiO2 nanoparticles. It is highly able to provide appropriate strength and biological activity similar to the conventional titanium cage and also mainly it has been minimizes subsidence value. The synthesized novel material of n-TiO2 incorporated HAp/PEEK nanocomposite strut is scientifically given effective outcomes for fusion and reconstruction of the ACCF.

Abstract
Biomaterial-associated infections (BAIs) are today considered as one of the most withering complications of orthopedic implant surgery. Even though BAIs occur relatively infrequently in primary joint replacement surgeries (incidence rates around 1-2%), revision arthroplasties carry up to 40% risk of infection recurrence, with devastating consequences for the patient and significant associated cost. Once the responsible pathogens, mainly bacteria, attach to the surface of the biomaterial, they start creating layers of extracellular matrix with complex architectures, called biofilms. These last mentioned, encapsulate and protect bacteria by hindering the immune response and impeding antibiotics from reaching the pathogens. To prevent such an outcome, the surface of the biomaterials, in particular implants, can be modified in order to play the role of inherent drug delivery devices or as substrates for antibacterial/multifunctional coating deposition. This paper presents an overview of novel electrochemically-triggered deposition strategies, with a focus on electrophoretic deposition (EPD), a versatile and cost-effective technique for organic and inorganic material deposition. Other than being a simple deposition tool, EPD has been recently employed to create novel micro/nanostructured surfaces for multi-purpose antibacterial approaches, presented in detail in this review. In addition, a thorough comparison and assessment of the latest antibacterial and multifunctional compounds deposited by means of EPD have been reported, followed by a critical reflection on current and future prospects of the topic. The relative simplicity of EPD's application, has, by some means, undermined the fundamental requirement of rationality of multifunctional coating design. The demanding practical needs for a successful clinical translation in the growing fields of tissue engineering and antibacterial/multifunctional implant coatings, calls for a more systematic in vitro experimental design rationale, in order to make amends for the scarcity of significant in vivo and clinical studies.

Abstract
The use of polymer nanocomposites as novel materials for water remediation has emerged as a promising alternative for disinfection of bacteria contaminated water. Sodium alginate, a natural biopolymer has been investigated in this study by encapsulating antimicrobial zinc oxide nanoparticles supported bentonite. The confirmation of the alginate nanocomposites was done by use of TEM, SEM-EDS and XRD. The antimicrobial activity of the alginate nanocomposites was investigated by batch studies using surface water and synthetic bacteria contaminated water containing Staphylococcus aureus. The effect of nanocomposite amount and initial bacteria concentration has been studied. The inactivation results indicated that the nanocomposite effectively inactivated bacteria in both the synthetic and surface water. With an amount of 0.5 g of the nanocomposites, no bacteria was observed in the water after 70 min of contact time with initial bacteria concentration of 200 cfu/ml for synthetic water and within a min, no bacteria was observed in the water for surface water. It is worth noting that 200 cfu/ml is the bacteria concentration range in which environmental water is likely to contain. Therefore, the results of this study have indicated that the alginate nanocomposites can be deemed as a potential antimicrobial agent for water disinfection.

Abstract
Macromolecular coatings play an important role in many technological areas, ranging from the car industry to biosensors. Among the different coating technologies, electrochemically triggered processes are extremely powerful because they allow in particular spatial confinement of the film buildup up to the micrometer scale on microelectrodes. Here, we review the latest advances in the field of electrochemically triggered macromolecular film buildup processes performed in aqueous solutions. All these processes will be discussed and related to their several applications such as corrosion prevention, biosensors, antimicrobial coatings, drug-release, barrier properties and cell encapsulation. Special emphasis will be put on applications in the rapidly growing field of biosensors. Using polymers or proteins, the electrochemical buildup of the films can result from a local change of macromolecules solubility, self-assembly of polyelectrolytes through electrostatic/ionic interactions or covalent cross-linking between different macromolecules. The assembly process can be in one step or performed step-by-step based on an electrical trigger affecting directly the interacting macromolecules or generating ionic species.

Abstract
Chitosan-based material has been widely used as bone substitute due to its good biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, the hydrophobic surface of chitosan film constrains the osteogenesis mineralization in the process of bone regeneration. For this reason, we develop a novel polydopamine-modified chitosan film suitable for bone tissue engineering applications by a simple and feasible route in this study. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirm the process of surface modification. For comparison, surface wettability, the capacity of mineralization in vitro, and biocompatibility of the chitosan film and the polydopamine-modified chitosan film were assessed. Research results indicate that the polydopamine-modified chitosan film has good hydrophilicity. It is very evident that the polydopamine treatment significantly influences the biomineralization capacity of the chitosan-based substrates, which enhance the growth rate of apatite on the modified chitosan film. Besides, MC3T3-E1 osteoblast experiments demonstrate that the cells can adhere and grow well on the polydopamine-modified chitosan film. It is anticipated that this polydopamine-modified chitosan film, which can be prepared in large quantities simply, should have potential applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
To address one of the serious problems associated with permanent implants, namely bacterial infections, novel organic/inorganic coatings containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (nZnO) are proposed. Coatings were obtained by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) on stainless steel 316L. Different deposition conditions namely: deposition times in the range 60-300s and applied voltage in the range 5-30V as well as developing a layered coating approach were studied. Antibacterial tests against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative Salmonella enteric bacteria confirmed the activity of nZnO to prevent bacterial growth. Coatings composition and morphology were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Moreover, the corrosion resistance was analyzed by evaluation of the polarization curves in DMEM at 37°C, and it was found that coatings containing nZnO increased the corrosion resistance compared to the bare substrate. Considering all results, the newly developed coatings represent a suitable alternative for the surface modification of metallic implants.
