Implant failure is primarily caused by poor osseointegration and bacterial colonization, which demands readmissions and revision surgeries to correct it. A novel approach involves engineering multifunctional interfaces using piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) materials, which mimic bone tissue's electroactive properties to promote bone integration and provide antibacterial functionality when mechanically stimulated. In this study, PVDF films were coated with antibacterial essential oil nanoparticles and antibiofilm enzymes using a layer-by-layer (LBL) approach to ensure antibacterial properties even without mechanical stimulation. The experimental results confirmed the LBL build-up and demonstrated notable antibiofilm properties against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus while enhancing pre-osteoblast cell proliferation under mechanical dynamic conditions in a bioreactor that replicated the real-life environment of implants within the body. The findings highlight the potential of PVDF-coated surfaces to prevent biofilm formation and boost cell proliferation through the piezoelectric effect, paving the way for advanced implantable devices with improved osseointegration and antibacterial performance.
种植体失败主要是由于骨整合不良和细菌定植引起的,这需要再次入院和进行翻修手术来纠正。一种新方法涉及使用压电聚偏二氟乙烯 (PVDF) 材料来设计多功能界面,这些材料模拟骨组织的电活性特性,以促进骨整合,并在受到机械刺激时提供抗菌功能。在这项研究中,使用层层 (LBL) 方法将具有抗菌作用的精油纳米粒子和抗生物膜酶涂覆在 PVDF 薄膜上,以确保即使没有机械刺激也具有抗菌性能。实验结果证实了 LBL 的构建,并证明了对铜绿假单胞菌和金黄色葡萄球菌具有显著的抗生物膜特性,同时在生物反应器中增强了机械动态条件下前成骨细胞的增殖,该生物反应器复制了体内植入物的真实环境。这些发现强调了涂覆有 PVDF 的表面通过压电效应防止生物膜形成和促进细胞增殖的潜力,为具有改进的骨整合和抗菌性能的先进可植入设备铺平了道路。
