The electrochemical behavior of two Ti alloys (TA and TAV) and two grades of stainless steels (SS 1 and SS 2 ), commonly used as biomedical implant materials, particularly for orthopedic and osteosynthesis applications, was investigated in Hank's solution at 37 C and different pH. The aim was to dis

## Abstract Designing materials having suitable mechanical properties and targeted degradation behavior is the key for the development of biodegradable materials for medical applications, including stents. A series of FeβMn alloys was developed with the objective to obtain mechanical properties sim
In this work the corrosion behavior of a new biomaterial, the MA-956 superalloy, immersed in Hank's solution is evaluated. A comparison with conventional metallic alloys used as articular implants is established. To determine the corrosion behavior we employed electrochemical methods: evaluation of
The degree of platelet adhesion and subsequent thrombus formation is an important measure of biocompatibility for cardiovascular biomaterials. Traditional methods of quantifying platelet adhesion often are limited by the need for direct optical access, limited spatial resolution, or the lack of temp
