Popis: The purpose of this study is to characterize the anodised layers formed on titanium by anodic spark deposition in an electrolyte containing Ca and P ions (Ca3(PO4)2). The oxidation experiments were performed at different periods of time and using different concentrations of electrolyte. The influence of the process parameters (time of electrolysis and electrolyte concentration) on the surface morphology and chemical composition of the anodised layers was studied. It has been found that it is possible to incorporate Ca and P into the growing layer. A response of the anodised layers in a biological medium was evaluated by their immersion in a simulated body fluid. An enrichment of titanium and a simultaneous loss of calcium and phosphorus in the layer after immersion tests indicate that these coatings should be bioresorbable in a biological medium. Preliminary biological assays were performed on some anodized layers in order to assess their biocompatibility with osteoblast cells. The cell proliferation on one selected anodized sample was assessed up to 21 days after seeding. The preliminary results suggest excellent biocompatibility properties of anodized coatings. Further experiments assessing cell morphology proliferation differentiation and gene expression are needed to comfort these encouraging preliminary results.
