methods for changing the surface chemistry of biomedical implants and related equipment |
abstract |
Abstract "Methods for changing the surface chemistry of biomedical implants and related equipment" are presented methods for optimizing the antibacterial characteristics of a biomedical implant. In some implementations, the method may comprise obtaining a block of material for biomedical implant. The biomedical implant material block may comprise a silicon nitride ceramic material. The surface chemistry of the biomedical implant material block can be altered to optimize the antibacterial characteristics of the biomedical implant material block. In some implementations, surface chemistry may be altered by burning the biomedical implant material block in a nitrogen-rich environment or otherwise by increasing the nitrogen content in the transitional oxide layer by at least a portion. of the biomedical implant material block. The surface of the biomedical implant material block may also or alternatively be roughened to optimize the antibacterial characteristics of the implant. |
