## Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HA), a stable and biocompatible material for bone tissue therapy, may present a variable stoichiometry and accept a large number of cationic substitutions. Such substitutions may modify the chemical activity of HA surface, with possible impact on biocompatibility. In thi
This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of coating characteristics on the mechanical strengths of the plasma-sprayed HA-coated Ti-6Al-4V implant system both in vitro and in vivo. Two types of HA coatings (HACs) with quite different microstructures, concentrations of impurityphases, and indi
The key to manufacturing magnesium-based alloys that are suitable as biodegradable orthopaedic implants is how to adjust their degradation rates and mechanical integrity in the physiological environment. In this study, to solve this challenge, a soluble Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite (Ca-def HA) coatin
