Various redox reactions at the oxide/solution interface give information on the conduction mechanism in thin anodic oxide Urns. Because of the inhomogeneous current distribution in such films it is difficult to use semiconductor models in more than a qualitative manner. ## Rbum~Diverses reactions

Abstract
For metallic implants the surface nature is extremely important because blood and tissue interactions with metal depend upon it. Protein adsorption is the initial reaction that takes place when an implant comes in contact with blood or tissue. We attempted to coat different thicknesses of oxide layers and hydroxyapatite on tantalum and examined the changes in water contact angle and adsorption of albumin and fibrinogen. Protein adsorption studies were performed with ^125^Iβlabeled proteins. A decrease in water contact angle was observed as the oxide layer thickness of tantalum increased. Fibrinogen adsorption increased on oxide layer coated and hydroxyapatite coated surfaces, compared to bare tantalum. Β© 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
