Drug-eluting Ti wires with titania nanotube arrays for bone fixation and reduced bone infection [PDF]
Nanoscale Research Letters, 2011 Abstract Current bone fixation technology which uses stainless steel wires known as Kirschner wires for fracture fixing often causes infection and reduced skeletal load resulting in implant failure. Creating new wires with drug-eluting properties to locally deliver drugs is an appealing approach to address some of these problems.
