## Abstract Autoclave sterilization of paperβwrapped stainless steel implants resulted in slight general surface corrosion and crystalline contamination. Such artifacts may produce microanodes which induce local tissue reactions, thereby lowering the pH and further activating the corrosion process.
## Abstract The objective of this study was to produce corrosion behavior data for each of the commonly used metallic alloys in surgical implants. In addition, by applying the known electrochemical corrosion theory, the study aims to predict the behavior of galvanic couples made of any two of the m
In recent years, implants have gained growing importance in all areas of medicine. Of these, orthopaedic and dental implants are routinely exposed to high mechanical loads such as friction and wear together with multiaxial, multistep fatigue. Sustaining these loads is one prime challenge of these im
