Abstract
Titanium implants (Ti) have been widely used in several medical fields. In clinical practice, Ti can become contaminated with bacteria through a variety of mechanisms. This contamination can lead to implant failure and serious infections. In this study, we aimed to develop a new, hybrid Ti with good biocompatibility and antibacterial properties by immobilizing ceftazidime (CFT) onto the Ti surface through polydopamine (PDA) and polyethyleneimine...
