AB  - The jarosite type of sediment that occurs in the hydrometallurgical production of zinc represents an attractive research area for the valorization of lead. Intermediate products of zinc metallurgy were used for testing: untreated, roasted and water-washed roasted PbAg precipitate. After a detailed insight into the possibility of processing this type of sediment using the hydrometallurgical process, the choice of means for leaching the samples was made, and in the experimental research a solution of magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl2 × 6H2O) was used. The thermodynamic analysis included the calculation of the standard Gibbs energy of chemical leaching reactions and the construction of the Eh/pH diagram of the stability of lead and accompanying metals in the investigated systems. By examining the influence, ratio of sample mass and volume of leaching agent, as well as leaching time, conclusions were reached about the possibilities of leaching Pb from intermediate products of zinc metallurgy. The optimal parameters of the leaching process in the tested systems were determined, i. e. it was shown that in all three tested samples the maximum leaching of lead is achieved at a concentration of MgCl2 × 6H2O of 4 mol/dm3, for a duration of 60 minutes, at a temperature of 80 oC and a solid:liquid ratio of 1:20.

AB  - The textile industry is one of the major polluters of the environment, primarily due to the types and quantities of wastewater it produces. It is estimated that 20% of global water pollution is caused by textile processing, meaning that these processes generate enormous amounts of wastewater. Generally, this wastewater contains high levels of suspended solids, dyes, salts, pesticides, non-biodegradable organic substances, and heavy metals. The decline in water quality, along with increasingly stringent environmental protection regulations, has led the textile industry to turn to sustainable wastewater treatment methods that help reduce the global water footprint. This paper reviews some viable methods used for the treatment of wastewater originating from the textile industry. The focus is on advanced treatment techniques, such as adsorption, membrane-based filtration, electrochemical processes, and advanced oxidation. These methods offer potential solutions to mitigate the environmental impact of textile wastewater and promote sustainable water management practices.

AB  - The incombustible portion of coal that remains after burning is known as bottom or fly ash, and it has a detrimental influence on the environment. One of the possible alternatives for reducing the amount of ash deposited in landfills might be the production of useful glass-ceramic from vitrified fly ash. Glass-ceramic was synthesized using fly ash from the thermal power plant "Nikola Tesla" and fluxing additives. Sinter-crystallization of the parent glass resulted in glass ceramics. The glass was created by melting a combination of coal fly ash (CFA), Na2CO3, and CaCO3 at T= 1500 °C and quenching the melt in the air. Glass powders were sintered at temperatures 850 and 900 °C. The resulting glass-ceramics were characterized microstructurally, physically, and mechanically. The cavitation erosion of samples was evaluated. The cavitation rate was 0.015 mg/min for the sample sintered at 850 °C, and 0.0053 mg/min for the sample sintered at 900 °C. The leaching of heavy metals in glass-ceramic samples was determined using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure. A low concentration of heavy metals in the leaching solution showed that heavy metals were successfully incorporated in the glass matrix and that obtained glass-ceramics are ecologically safe for usage. Both samples exhibit good resistance to cavitation erosion, suggesting their potential as possible replacements for structural ceramics commonly employed components of hydraulic machinery.

Rudarstvo kao značajna privredna grana u Srbiji u poslednjih nekoliko godina beleži značajno povećanje proizvodnih kapaciteta tako i generisanja kontaminiranih otpadnih voda posebno kada su u pitanju polimetalični rudnici.

Da bi se unapredio kapacitet adsorpcije ovog materijala, on je modifikovan sa odabranim dubokim eutektičkim rastvaračem (DES). Radi proširenja mogućnosti primene nakon tretmana sa DES-om, modifikovana ovsena slama (DOS) je imobilisana u kuglice sa alginatom, te je time dobijen IDOS. Efikasnost adsorpcije teških metalnih jona metala iz rastvora bakra testirana je na modifikovanoj (ili imobilisanoj) ovsenoj slami. Maksimalni dobijeni kapaciteti za adsorpciju jona bakra bili su 26.4, 81.4, 124.78 mg/g respektivno. Dobijeni rezultati pokazali su da adsorpcija prati kinetički model pseudo-drugog reda, što implicira da je hemisorpcija za vezivanje jona bakra, odnosno korak koji kontroliše brzinu adsorpcije.

AB  - The alkaline activation could be useful to improve the adsorption abilities of hydrochars. In this
regard, the aim of this work was a comparison of the efficiency of non-modified (HPL) and modified
hydrochar (MHPL) forms during the adsorption of cadmium (Cd) ions from aqueous media. It was
found that MHPL had a higher capacity (qm=19.60 mg/g) and a different mechanism of bonding than
HPL (qm=11.76 mg/g). The Langmuir isotherms model best described Cd(II) adsorption by HPL, while
the Freundlich isotherm model better-described adsorption by alkali modified form. The SEM/EDS
and the FTIR analysis confirmed that there is a structural difference between these two new
adsorption materials, which might be attributed to the influence of the NaOH treatment. Also, the
FTIR analysis showed that MHPL adsorbent most binds Cd ions using oxygen functional groups. It
can be concluded that this paper also confirmed that alkaline modification improves the adsorption
capacity of hydrochar.

AB  - Untreated industrial effluent is causing alarming levels of water pollution in our modern world. Hydrochars, functional carbonaceous materials obtained during the hydrothermal carbonization of waste biomass, possess a great potential for use in industrial wastewater treatment. Their high reactivity and regenerative properties compensate its deficiency, which is reflected in a small specific surface area. In addition, these materials are amenable to additional functionalization and modification by various chemical treatments. Previous studies have demonstrated that incorporating metals onto the surface of hydrochar or treating it with hydrogen peroxide or alkalis can significantly enhance its adsorption capabilities. This paper provides a brief overview of using hydrochars from various sources as adsorbents for heavy metals. This review aims to assess the impact of material modification on its structural characteristics and sorption capacity.

AB  - The concept of a bio-based economy has been adopted by many advanced countries around
the world, and thermochemical conversion of waste biomass is recognized as the most effective
approach to achieve this objective. Recent studies indicate that hydrothermal carbonization (HTC)
is a promising method for the conversion of waste biomass towards novel carbonaceous materials
known as hydrochars. This cost-effective and eco-friendly process operates at moderate temperatures
(180–280 ◦C) and uses water as a reaction medium. HTC has been successfully applied to a wide
range of waste materials, including lignocellulose biomass, sewage sludge, algae, and municipal solid
waste, generating desirable carbonaceous products. This review provides an overview of the key
HTC process parameters, as well as the physical and chemical properties of the obtained hydrochar.
It also explores potential applications of produced materials and highlights the modification and
functionalization techniques that can transform these materials into game-changing solutions for a
sustainable future.

AB  - Three-dimensional hierarchical porous carbons (HPCs) created through hydrothermal carbonization and the subsequent chemical activation of miscanthus were tested as adsorbents of Pb2+ and methylene blue from the aqueous solution. The HPC pore structure was customized using various hydrochar precursors obtained through a longer reaction time and by adding acetic acid. HPC obtained from hydrochar derived from acetic acid’s addition exhibited the highest specific surface area due to a larger micropore volume. This adsorbent proved to be the most efficient in removing lead from aqueous solutions. The Langmuir isotherm best described the lead adsorption process onto HPC with qm = 155.6 mg g−1 and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. HPC obtained from hydrochar produced with a longer reaction time exhibited improved methylene blue adsorption properties. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm best described the experimental data. The theoretical maximum adsorption capacity for methylene blue was 316.0 mg g−1. The type of hydrochar significantly impacted the yield and physical structure of HPCs, while having a lesser effect on the composition of surface functional groups. The results revealed the binding mechanism of each pollutant, highlighting the importance of biomass pretreatment on the structure of the resulting HPC and its effectiveness in water purification.

AB  - Omnipresent in terrestrial ecosystems, microplastics (MPs) represent a hazard to soil biota and human health, while their relationship with other environmental contaminants remains poorly acknowledged. This study investigated MPs prevalence in (sub)urban soils of Serbia and its impact on Cd, As, and Pb mobility in the soil-medicinal plant Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik system. Soil physicochemical parameters (pH, Eh, SOM, and texture) were analyzed alongside the Cd, As, and Pb pseudo-total (aqua regia) and phytoavailable (EDTA) contents. Toxic elements' concentrations in soil fractions and C. bursa-pastoris roots and shoots were determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Pseudo-total Cd, As, and Pb contents in soils ranged from 0.16 to 2.23 μg g−1, 2.00–36.92 μg g−1, and 0.18–65.54 μg g−1, respectively. Using an optimized density separation method with 30% H2O2 and 5% NaClO, we found an average abundance of 489 MPs per kg of soil. ATR-FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of seven polymer types, whereby the main contributors were polystyrene (PS) – 28.57% and cardanol prepolymer (PCP) – 23.81%. The dominant associated pollution sources were road networks and industrial activities. Spearman correlation analysis revealed the interconnection among soil MPs, physicochemical variables, and Cd, As, and Pb mobility. We identified significant positive correlations between MPs' abundance and phytoavailable concentrations of Cd, As, and Pb (ρ = 0.82, 0.95, and 0.63). Moreover, soil MPs strongly positively correlated with Cd contents in roots (ρ = 0.61) and shoots of C. bursa-pastoris (ρ = 0.65). These findings underscore the synergistic effects of MPs and toxic metals in urban environmental pollution, with possible implications for human health. Further research is required to deepen our understanding of the impact of MPs on element mobility in complex plant-soil systems and to elucidate the broader consequences of induced alterations.

The dominant associated pollution sources were road networks and industrial activities. Spearman correlation analysis revealed the interconnection among soil MPs, physicochemical variables, and Cd, As, and Pb mobility. We identified significant positive correlations between MPs' abundance and phytoavailable concentrations of Cd, As, and Pb (ρ = 0.82, 0.95, and 0.63). Moreover, soil MPs strongly positively correlated with Cd contents in roots (ρ = 0.61) and shoots of C. bursa-pastoris (ρ = 0.65). These findings underscore the synergistic effects of MPs and toxic metals in urban environmental pollution, with possible implications for human health. Further research is required to deepen our understanding of the impact of MPs on element mobility in complex plant-soil systems and to elucidate the broader consequences of induced alterations.",

AB  - Owing to mild properties, wide availability, and low reported side effects, medicinal herbs have
been traditionally utilized for thousands of years as a folk remedy, while almost 80% of the world
population consumes it as a medical supplement of primary healthcare (WHO). Despite widespread
distribution and a broad spectrum of benefits for human health, Capsella bursa-pastoris L. Medik is
an underexplored medicinal species with a recorded significant accumulation capacity for
potentially toxic elements (PTEs). In the present study, we investigated the abundance and mobility
of PTEs (Ba, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Sr, and Zn) in the urban soil - C. bursa-pastoris system and
comprehensively evaluated potential posing human health risks. Samples were collected in four
Serbian cities – Belgrade, Bor, Vršac, and Sremska Mitrovica. PTEs concentrations in samples were
determined using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The
pseudo-total concentrations in soils surpassed the world mean levels. Cu, Zn, Sr, and Mn were the
most abundant, whereby the calculated Igeo index suggested moderate to heavy soil contamination.
Non-carcinogenic (HI) and carcinogenic risks (CR) associated with the ingestion, dermal, and
inhalation exposure to the examined soils were within the acceptable ranges (HI < 1, CR < 10-6).
Although Sr, Cu, and Ni contents were elevated in the plant tissues (roots - up to 57.04 mg kg-1, 23.36 mg kg-1, and 7.90 mg kg-1, and shoots – up to 60.78 mg kg-1, 20.21 mg kg-1 and 6.26 mg kg1), estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ), and lifetime carcinogenic risk (LCR)
demonstrated non-significant health risks by consuming C. bursa-pastoris, as a raw herb or herbal
extracts. This study aimed to underscore the urgency of the PTEs' continual monitoring in soils and
medicinal plants and highlight the importance of conducting comprehensive health risk assessments
in providing safe medicinal plant utilization.

AB  - Zinc-air batteries belong to the group of green and sustainable energy storage systems, and as such, they attract a huge attention of both academic and technological communities. For this system, the alkaline electrolytes of zinc with high concentrations of ZnO and KOH are used. Morphology of zinc electrodeposits is characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique, and it was found that it depended on an overpotential of the electrodeposition with a strong contribution of a length of the electrodeposition time on the final shape. Variety of morphological shapes was observed: irregular and regular grains including those hexagonal shape were predominately formed at the overpotential belonging to the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density. The compact both regular and irregular dendrites were formed at this overpotential with the longer electrodeposition time. The 2D (two-dimensional) and 3D (three-dimensional) dendrites were formed at overpotentials outside the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density, in the zone of the rapid growth of the current density with the increase of the overpotential. In this zone, hydrogen evolution reaction as the second reaction to Zn electrolysis at high overpotentials started to take place. It is manifested by the appearance of craters on the surface of the electrode, which originate from detached hydrogen bubbles. All morpholical forms were explained and discussed applying the basic laws of electrocrystallization.

AB  - Correlation between morphology of electrolytically produced copper thin films and their hardness has been considered. The Cu films were electrodeposited by galvanostatic (DC) and by the pulsating current (PC) regimes on cathodes of limiting values of hardness (Cu, brass, and Si(111)) from the basic sulfate electrolytes without and with addition of leveling/brightening additives, without and with various ways of electrolyte stirring (ultrasound and magnetic stirring), and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. Hardness of Cu films was determined by microindentation and by application of composite hardness models (CHMs), such as Cheng–Gao (C–G) and Korsunsky (K), with the aim to eliminate a contribution of cathode hardness in the measured film hardness and to determine the absolute hardness of the Cu films. The fine-grained films obtained from the basic sulfate electrolyte were harder than the smooth film obtained from the electrolyte with additives and that obtained by the PC regime, indicating that the PC produced film represents transitional form between these two types of the films. The obtained values of the absolute film hardness in the 1.135–1.647 GPa range were in line with already published values for the electrolytically produced Cu thin films, clearly indicating on successful implementation of CHMs in determination of the absolute hardness of thin films. Correlation between morphology and hardness of Cu films was discussed by the basic laws of electrocrystallization and phenomena on boundary among grains during microindentation processes.

AB  - The alkaline electrolytes of zinc are widely used in a Zn-air secondary batteries which represent promising candidate for energy storage with many advantages relative to the other types, such as Li-air, Al-air, and Mg-air batteries. These advantages are related with an abundance of Zn, low toxicity, and low cost, as well as by the fact that Zn possess a relatively high specific energy density. One of the largest problems in a development of Zn-air batteries is dendritic growth caused by the uneven deposition of zinc in the charging process. The solving of this problem implies the good knowledge of all phenomena related with Zn deposition, and regarding it, this study aims to establish a correlation between morphology and structure of electrolytically produced Zn irregular forms, especially Zn dendrites. Zinc was electrodeposited potentiostatically from the concentrated electrolyte (0.35 M ZnO in 6.0 M KOH) at overpotentials belonging to the end of the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density (η = 160 mV), and to the zone of the fast growth of the current density after the end of the plateau of the limiting diffusion current density (η = 220 and 280 mV). Morphology and structure of Zn particles were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively.
Morphology of Zn electrodeposits changed with the increase of overpotential of the electrodeposition from regular hexagonal and other regular crystal forms to the mixture of 2D (two dimensional) and 3D (three dimensional) dendrites. The increase of overpotential of the electrodeposition led to an appearing and then intensification of hydrogen evolution reaction as a parallel reaction during Zn electrodeposition at the high overpotentials.
In spite of various shapes, Zn particles electrodeposited at all three overpotentials exhibited the strong (002) preferred orientation. The explanation for this predominant preferred orientation can be found in an analogy with a electrolytic growth of lead dendrites from the concentrated electrolyte. Although these two metals belong to different types of crystal lattice (Pb - face-cantered cubic type, and Zn - hexagonal close packed type), the common characteristic of dendritic growth is the preferred orientation in a crystal plane with the lowest surface energy. Namely, during growth of dendrites, this plane survives, while other crystal planes with the higher surface energy values disappear, causing the predominant orientation of Zn disperse forms in (002) crystal plane. In this way, interior of the Zn dendrites is constructed from (002) crystal plane, while tips and edges of Zn dendrites and other types of particles are from other crystal planes.

AB  - A chemometrically based approach was applied to select the most efficient drug adsorbent among the biochars obtained from the novel feedstock, the leaves of the invasive plant (Ailanthus altissima). The representative target adsorbates (atenolol, paracetamol, ketorolac and tetracycline) were selected on the basis of their physicochemical properties to cover a wide chemical space, which is the usual analytical challenge. Their adsorption was investigated using design of experiments as a comprehensive approach to optimise the performance of the adsorption system, rationalise the procedure and overcome common drawbacks. Among the response surface designs, the central composite design was selected as it allows the identification of important experimental factors (solid-to-liquid ratio, pH, ionic strength) and their interactions, and allows the selection of optimal experimental conditions to maximise adsorption performance. The biochars were prepared by pyrolysis at 500 °C and 800 °C (BC-500 and BC-800) and the ZnCl2-activated biochars were prepared at 650 °C and 800 °C (AcBC-650 and AcBC-800). The FTIR spectra revealed that increasing the pyrolysis temperature without activator decreases the intensity of all bands, while activation preserves functional groups, as evidenced by the spectra of AcBC-650 and AcBC-800. High temperatures during activation promoted the development of an efficient surface area, with the maximum observed for AcBC-800 reaching 347 m2 g−1. AcBC-800 was found to be the most efficient adsorbent with removal efficiencies of 34.1, 51.3, 55.9 and 38.2 % for atenolol, paracetamol, ketorolac and tetracycline, respectively. The models describing the relationship between the removal efficiency of AcBC-800 and the experimental factors studied, showed satisfactory predictive ability (predicted R2 > 0.8) and no significant lack-of-fit was observed. The results obtained, including the mathematical models, the properties of the adsorbates and the adsorbents, clearly indicate that the adsorption mechanisms of activated biochars are mainly based on hydrophobic interactions, pore filling and hydrogen bonding.

AB  - Spongy moth (Lymantria dispar Linnaeus 1758) populations have the potential to reach outbreak levels, causing disruptions to forest ecosystems across Eurasia and North America. Continuous monitoring of the size and health of the spongy moth population in the egg stage is important for managing population outbreaks. Current methods include counting eggs within egg masses using manual methods. This study introduces an innovative solution aimed at optimizing the prediction of biotic disturbances and preventing the potential risks associated with spongy moth population outbreaks. The challenges and constraints related to the process of hair removal from spongy moth eggs have been effectively addressed through the development of a device powered by a torque-generating unit. This study aims to (1) introduce a novel device designed for the removal of hairs from spongy moth (L. dispar) eggs; (2) introduce a new hair removal procedure; and (3) empirically demonstrate the benefits of the introduced innovations. The introduced device and the procedure enable a significantly expedited diagnosis of the potential for a population outbreak in the current year, with the potential for widespread utilization. This invention enhances our understanding of predicting biotic disorders and facilitates the rapid assessment of the risk of their occurrence.

AB  - The article shows changes in certain mechanical properties of polyvinyl
chloride (PVC) depending on the quality of added limestone as a filler. Natural
limestone and limestone hydrophobicized with stearic acid were added.
Modification experiments were carried out with “wet” and “dry” processes in order
to find out the required amount of stearic acid for a complete surface coating of
limestone - degree of coating 99.90%. Coating of the limestone surface was
achieved in the “wet” process with 1.5% stearic acid, while in the “dry” process
the same degree of coating was achieved with 3% stearic acid. A significant
amount of both “wet” and “dry” modified limestone was prepared. Such a product
was added to PVC mixture in order to investigate mechanical properties of the
obtained PVC product. Research into the mechanical properties of PVC has shown
that PVC containing limestone modified by the “wet” process exhibits better
mechanical properties than that containing limestone modified by the “dry”
process. For example, PVC obtained from a mixture containing limestone modified
by the “wet” process with 1.5% stearic acid shows a better tensile strength of 54.20
MPa, while limestone modified by the “dry” process with 3% stearic acid shows a
tensile strength 53.20 MPa.

AB  - The influence of modification on the textural properties of the natural zeolite (NZ) and its efficiency for the heavy metals ions removal from contaminated aqueous solution was investigated. The mineralogical composition of the NZ showed that the dominant mineral is clinoptilolite. The surface of the NZ was modified combining the methods for pure goethite and iron-coated zeolite preparations. After modification, the cation exchange capacities and the specific surface area increased from 30.2 to 52.5 m2/g, i.e., from 141 to 165 meq/100g, respectively. Adsorption experiments were done for different heavy metals initial concentrations (copper(II) 0.8 - 12.6 Cu2+mmol/dm3 or lead(II) 1.9 – 29.0 Pb2+mmol/dm3), for 24h, at pH 4.2, in batch conditions. Results showed positive influence of modification on the heavy metals ions removal. The results were fitted with Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models, and the best fits were obtained with Freundlich model (R2 > 0.92).

AB  - This study investigates the electrochemical desulfurization of sulfur-rich subbituminous coal (6.96 wt.%) from the Bogovina Basin using graphite and dimensionally stable anode (DSA) electrodes. The objective was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of these electrodes under varying thermal conditions to determine the optimal operational parameters that balance desulfurization efficiency with energy consumption. Electrochemical assessments were conducted through linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) to derive polarization curves and calculate activation energies, reflecting the intrinsic energy barriers of the desulfurization reactions. These tests were performed across a temperature range from 30°C to 70°C, providing insight into the thermally activated nature of these processes. The results demonstrated that the DSA electrodes outperformed the graphite electrodes in several key areas. Notably, DSA electrodes exhibited higher current densities at equivalent temperatures and potentials, indicating a more robust electrochemical activity conducive to higher desulfurization rates. Moreover, activation energy analysis revealed that DSA electrodes operate with significantly lower energy barriers, facilitating easier and more efficient reaction initiations. Energy consumption metrics were critical in evaluating the operational costs associated with each electrode type. The DSA electrodes were found to consume less energy per kilogram of sulfur removed, particularly at an optimal temperature of 50°C, which was identified as the most energy-efficient operational point. At this temperature, the DSA electrodes achieved peak desulfurization efficiency with the most favorable balance between energy input and desulfurization output. The study substantiates the superiority of DSA electrodes over traditional graphite electrodes for coal desulfurization processes, particularly at the optimal operational temperature of 50°C. The findings highlight significant potential for enhancing the sustainability and cost-effectiveness of coal desulfurization technologies, suggesting a paradigm shift towards the adoption of DSA electrodes in industrial applications to achieve more efficient and environmentally friendly outcomes.

AB  - Osteoarticular implants are designed to facilitate
full recovery of lost function and ensure effective
fixation of the implant. However, challenges
may arise, resulting in implant failure, primarily
attributed to infections at the implantation site
and aseptic loosening. Thus, the surface of an
implant must be altered to simultaneously offer
osteoinductive and antibacterial properties.
Synthetic hydroxyapatite (HAP) is frequently
employed to modify metallic implant surfaces
or serve as a bone filler material. To enhance
its biocompatibility, HAP-based polymer composites
were developed. Among most popular
synthetic polymers, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), is
widely used because of its similar structure to
the native extracellular matrix, along with chitosan
(CS), a natural cationic polysaccharide, that
shows biocompatibility, biodegradability and
antimicrobial action, and could act as a carrier
of antibacterial agents. The antibiotic of choice
was Gentamicin (Gent), a water-soluble aminoglycoside,
with very potent antibacterial activity
for the treatment of wide range of infections,
caused by Gram-negative and Gram-positive
bacteria. The original approach of the presented
research is the single-step electrophoretic deposition
(EPD) on Ti plates of thus prepared biocomposite
that would allow for on-site release of the
drug. Obtained hydroxyapatite/chitosan/poly(vinyl
alcohol/gentamicin (HAP/PVA/CS/Gent) biocomposite
coating exhibited strong antibacterial
effect against E. coli and S. aureus. Gentamicin release
study indicated “burst” release in the first 48
h, with ~ 30% of total gentamicin released from
the HAP/PVA/CS/Gent coating which is beneficial
for the blockage of biofilm formation, followed
by slow and steady release in the later period. Cytotoxic
effect of HAP/PVA/CS/Gent coating was
not pronounced in investigated MRC-5 and L929
cell lines. Also, in MRC-5 fibroblast cells, alkaline
phosphatase levels doubled when in contact
with HAP/PVA/CS/Gent, indicating good osteogenic
properties. The overall construct on the
substrate in such a form would be well-advanced
arrangement for future medical device improvement
of skeletal implants.
