20.500.12556/RUL-156097 Enhanced hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility of stainless steel The present study introduces an advanced surface modification approach combining electrochemical anodization and non-thermal plasma treatment, tailored for biomedical applications on stainless steel grade 316L (SS316L) surfaces. Nanopores with various diameters (100−300 nm) were synthesized with electrochemical anodization, and samples were further modified with non-thermal oxygen plasma. The surface properties of SS316L surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, and Water contact angle measurements. It has been shown that a combination of electrochemical anodization and plasma treatment significantly alters the surface properties of SS316L and affects its interactions with blood platelets and human coronary cells. Optimal performance is attained on the anodized specimen featuring pores within the 150−300 nm diameter range, subjected to subsequent oxygen plasma treatment; the absence of platelet adhesion was observed. At the same time, the sample demonstrated good endothelialization and a reduction in smooth muscle cell adhesion compared to the untreated SS316L and the sample with smaller pores (100−150 nm). This novel surface modification strategy has significant implications for improving biocompatibility and performance of SS316L in biomedical applications. surface modifications electrochemical anodization non-thermal plasma treatment altered surface properties blood platelets human coronary stents true false true Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2024-05-08 09:03:57 2024-05-08 09:03:58 2025-08-08 13:31:22 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 19566-19577 iss. 17 Vol. 9 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2024-01-01 577 2470-1343 10.1021/acsomega.4c01191 193934339 bencina-et-al-2024-enhanced-hemocompatibility-and-cytocompatibility-of-stainless-steel.pdf bencina-et-al-2024-enhanced-hemocompatibility-and-cytocompatibility-of-stainless-steel.pdf 1 57730110051D73824CADF3E9A5CC43D0 9afffb516f167c34d342570c74a86096e3265bba78281ff834fda631d1d09c0b 6d76207f-0d09-11ef-a389-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=183334 https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsomega.4c01191 1 1fe421f5-913c-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=194732 Zdravstvena fakulteta Fakulteta za elektrotehniko 0 0 0
