However, there is very limited information on the stability of such functionalities. Ti surface functionalized with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) has been reported to inhibit bacterial colonization while at the same time enhances osteoblast functions. In this work, three types of anchoring molecules, (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (Silane), dopamine (DA), and polydopamine (PDA), were used for immobilizing the CMCS on Ti. The CMCS-modified surfaces were subjected to 70% ethanol treatment, autoclaving, and prolonged immersion in phosphate buffered saline (PBS). After the treatment procedures, the ability of the CMCS-modified substrates to inhibit colonization by Staphylococcus epidermidis (. S. epidermidis) was assessed to evaluate the stability of the immobilized CMCS. The bacterial adhesion assays showed that the CMCS-DA- and CMCS-PDA-modified Ti remained stable after 70% ethanol treatment, autoclaving, and prolonged immersion in PBS, whereas the CMCS-Silane-modified Ti was less stable after autoclaving and prolonged immersion in PBS. The CMCS-DA- and CMCS-PDA-modified Ti substrates were functionalized with BMP-2 and used to support osteoblast growth. Evaluation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium deposition from osteoblasts cultured on these substrates, which have been treated with 70% ethanol, or subjected to autoclaving, and prolonged immersion in PBS indicated that the immobilized BMP-2 on these surfaces retained its bioactivity. © 2013 Elsevier Inc. | Source Title: | Journal of Colloid and Interface Science | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/63517 | ISSN: | 00219797 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jcis.2013.05.060 |
