Abstract excerpt
Photo-functionalized radical reactions on TiO(2) have been correlated with adsorption of organic impurities and decreasing hydrophilicity of titanium-based biomaterials. Such reactive oxygen species (ROS) spontaneously generated on oxidized titanium surfaces may also have important roles against time-dependent degradation of biological ability and adherent micro-organisms. This study examined in vitro biological...
