Response of MG63 Osteoblast-Like Cells on Pyrolytic Carbon Coated Carbon/Carbon Composites
Abstract:
In order to improve the biocompatibility of carbon/carbon(C/C) composites used for hip prosthesis, pyrolytic carbon coating was prepared on their surface by chemical vapor deposition. The microstructures of the samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the biomedical response was assessed by the morphology and proliferation of MG63 osteoblast-like cells. The results show that the texture on the surface of C/C composites changes from chaotic structure to uniform state after the pyrolytic carbon coating is prepared. Osteoblasts cultured on pyrolytic carbon coating present flat shape with thin thickness, and display better proliferation in comparison with those on the uncoated C/C composites surface.
