It was carried out by scientists from the Institute of Chemistry and Biomedical Technologies of Tomsk Polytechnic University together with colleagues from Germany and the United States. The nanotubes are coated with a calcium phosphate coating, which has the same chemical composition as human bone. Director of Physical Materials Science and Composite Materials Research Center: Due to nanotubes act as a kind of warehouse loaded with various bioactive substances and molecules, which can significantly improve the bioactivity of the implant surface. Thus, they increase the survival rate of bone implants. In addition, medicinal substances loaded into the nanotubes will enter the patient's moible number data body and help him fight certain diseases. Bone, ceramics, and the application of bioactive coatings are not the only options for befriending implants. Some products are more biocompatible than their counterparts made from titanium and nickel-based metals and alloys. For example, biocompatible ceramic implants. They don't need a buffer layer to survive in the body and have minimal side effects. Ceramic implants are widely used in orthopedics and dentistry. Tomsk Polytechnic Institute is developing new technologies for custom-shaped implants based on zirconium nanoceramics, as well as improving existing technologies on orders from industrial partners, high-tech companies that are residents of the Tomsk Special Economic Zone.
