## Abstract We evaluated bone microhardness at the interface with hydroxyapatiteβcoated stainlessβsteel pins used in an external fracture fixation system. Pins were transversally inserted into the diaphyses of sheep tibiae and were loaded in for 6 weeks. Uncoated pins were implanted as controls. Mi

The in uiuo biocompatibihty of metals coated with several different types of ceramics [alumina (a-A1203), titanium oxide (TiOJ, titanium nitride (TIN), and hydroxyapatite (HAP)] was investigated. These composites had been devised for the purpose of incorporation into the stem of a total hip prosthe-
The purpose of this study was to develop an analytical method for evaluating the dissolution behavior of plasmasprayed hydroxyapatite (HAP) coatings. Six commercially available and clinically used coatings applied to nonporous titanium coupons according to their respective specifications for orthope
## Abstract Cyclic polarization curves obtained for a cobaltβbase casting alloy (similar to Vitallium Surgical Alloy) and for 316L stainless steel show that the cobaltβbase alloy exhibits a high (noble) protection potential whereas the stainless steel exhibits a low (active) protection potential. I

## Abstract The ability to replace or augment diseased body parts totally or partially has improved both the quality and life span of human population. The decline in surgical risks during recent decades has encouraged the development of more complex procedures for prosthetic implantation. Addition
