Popis: Bioresorbable biomaterials are expected to degrade or to be resorbed within the body at an appropriate degradation rate rather than removing the implant after fulfilling its function. Adsorption of proteins on the metal surface and its subsequent detachment can affect the degradation mechanism and induce health complications. The iron samples were produced from carbonyl iron powder by powder metallurgy and coated by thin layer of polyethyleneimine (PEI). The effect of both PEI coating and bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction on corrosion resistance of iron biomaterials in Hanks’ solution was investigated. Adsorption of BSA onto Fe + PEI was more rapid in comparison to adsorption onto bare Fe due to the electrostatic nature of BSA adsorption to polymeric layer. The corrosion behavior of sintered samples in Hanks’ solution without and with protein was investigated. Alteration of degradation mechanism was observed in the presence of PEI and/or BSA. PEI was observed to avoid the pitting corrosion while presence of BSA resulted in surface-induced complexation. The extensive pitting with high extent of metal release was observed in the presence of PEI and BSA. The additional spectroscopic and microscopic methods were used to prove the suggested alteration of corrosion mechanism.
