Herein we report the results of multi-element nitride and intermetallic coatings obtained by
the arc-PVD method based on non-trivial elements combinations (Nb-75.5, Si-9.65, Cu …

Many diseases are accompanied by changes in the redox environment, such as the
reducing environment of the tumor cytoplasmic matrix and oxidative stress and the …

Ceramic coatings may be applied onto metallic components of joint replacements for
improved wear and corrosion resistance as well as enhanced biocompatibility, especially for …

Applying surface coatings on a biomedical implant is a promising modification technique
which can enhance the implant's biocompatibility via controlling blood constituents-or/and …

In the current study, we have examined the possibility to improve the biocompatibility of the
