Electrophoretic Deposition and Characterization ofnFunctional Coatings Based on an AntibacterialnGallium (III)‐Chitosan Complex
Original language description
Despite their broad biomedical applications in orthopedics and dentistry, metallicnimplants are still associated with failures due to their lack of surface biofunctionality, leading tonprosthesis‐related microbial infections. In order to address this issue, the current study focuses onnthe fabrication and characterization of a novel type of antibacterial coating based on gallium (III)‐nchitosan (Ga (III)‐CS) complex layers deposited on metallic substrates via electrophoretic depositionn(EPD). Aiming for the production of homogeneous and monophasic coatings, a two step‐procedurenwas applied: the first step involved the synthesis of the Ga (III)‐CS complex, followed by EPD fromnsuitable solutions in an acetic acid–aqueous solvent. The influence of Ga (III) concentration on thenstability of the suspensions was evaluated in terms of zeta potential. Fourier transform infraredn(FTIR) and energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX) spectroscopic analyses indicated the chelation of CS withnGa (III) within the coatings, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed that no additionalnmetallic gallium deposited during EPD. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that the wettability,nmechanical properties, swelling ability, and enzymatic degradation of the coatings were affected bynthe quantity of Ga (III) ions. Colony forming unit (CFU) tests showed a strong synergistic effectnbetween CS and Ga (III) in inhibiting Escherichia coli strain growth compared to control CS samples.nAn in vitro study with MG‐63 cells showed that Ga (III)‐containing coatings were not toxic after 24 h ofnincubation.
