Antibacterial and osteoinductive implant coating, method for producing such a coating and implant coated with the same

摘要

The coating has a layer controllingly modified during deposition and by after-treatment relative to a phase composition and a solubility so that a layer's controlled resorption is enabled. The coating contains highly porous calcium phosphate and discontinuous distributed copper. The layer conducts angiogenesis of an adjacent tissue by elution of copper ions. A high initial elution antimicrobially acts by resolution of elementary copper. The layer releases the copper in a rate so that a copper-concentration of 90 to 160 micromoles per liter is provided in bodily fluid surrounding an implant. An independent claim is also included for a method for producing a coating.
