Summary: | This thesis focuses on modifying the surface of biomaterials using nanotechnology to reduce infection and optimize cell growth and proliferation. The first part of this thesis focuses on nanocomposite ceramic coatings on orthopedic implants using electrophoretic deposition and the second part involves the use of nanofibrous extracellular matrix (ECM) like scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. |
