Despite the large number of studies investigating nickel release from orthodontic stainless
steel and nickel-titanium alloys, there is a lack of conclusive evidence with respect to the …

Metals, in addition to ceramics and polymers, are important class of materials considered for
replacement of non-functional parts in the body. Stainless steel 316, titanium and titanium …

Objective: The microbiological and enzymatic characteristics of the oral cavity would seem to
provide a suitable environment for the corrosion of metals. We assayed the release of metal …

Various types of metallic orthodontic appliances are used in the management of
malocclusion. These appliances are placed in oral environnent under many stresses and …

In this paper, we report the results of an in vitro experiment on the release of metal ions from
orthodontic appliances composed of alloys containing iron, chromium, nickel, silicon, and …

Expansion of umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (UCB MNCs) was carried out in a
rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor and tissue culture flasks (T-flasks) in serum-containing …

Introduction Stainless steel and commercially pure titanium are widely used materials in
orthopedic implants. However, it is still being controversially discussed whether there are …

The purpose of this study was to develop titanium–silver alloys with biocompatibility, high
corrosion resistance, and low ion‐release rate, and to evaluate the electrochemical …

Rat bone marrow cells were cultured in experimental conditions that favour the proliferation
and differentiation of osteoblastic cells (ie, 2.52× 10-4moll-1 ascorbic acid, 10-2moll-1β …

The present review is based on a survey of 21 studies on the cytocompatibility of medical
biomaterials containing nickel, as assessed by cell culture of human and animal osteoblasts …
