Dual-Functional Implants with Antibacterial and Osteointegration-Promoting Performances

Multifunctional antibacterial materials have great significance for treating biomedical device-associated infections (BAIs). In the present work, a facile and rational strategy was developed to produce dual-functional implants with antibacterial and osteointegration-promoting properties for the treatment of BAI. A titanium implant, as a representative demo of implants, was first functionalized with ethanediamine-functionalized poly(glycidyl...
