"During their service life, most biomaterials and medical implants are vulnerable to tribological damage. In addition, the environments in which they are placed are often corrosive. The combination of triobology, corrosion and the biological environment has been named ‘bio-tribocorrosion’. Understanding this complex phenomenon is critical to improving the design and service life of medical implants. This important book reviews recent key research in this area.After an introduction to the topography of bio-tribocorrosion, Part one discusses different types of tribocorrosion including fatigue-corrosion, fretting-corrosion, wear-corrosion and abrasion-corrosion. The book also discusses the prediction of wear in medical devices. Part two looks at biological effects on tribocorrosion processes, including how proteins interact with material surfaces and the evolution of surface changes due to bio-tribocorrosion resulting from biofilms and passive films. Part three reviews the issue of bio-tribocorrosion in clinical practice, including dental applications and joint replacement as well the use of coatings and test methods for bio-tribocorrosion."

"ABSTRAKPendahuluan: Pencarian implan berbahan biomaterial yang dapat diserap tubuh dengan baik terus berlanjut. Biomaterial untuk implan orthopaedi biodegradabel harus memenuhi kriteria tertentu, seperti waktu degradasi yang harus parallel dengan lini masa fisiologis penyembuhan tulang normal. Magnesium adalah mikronutrien tubuh alami sekaligus metal biodegradabel yang mempunyai sifat biomekanika menyerupai tulang. Akan tetapi, waktu degradasi metal ini sangatlah singkat dan menghasilkan produk korosi gas H2 serta sifat alkali. Karbonat apatit merupakan apatit biologis yang mempunyai osteokonduktivitas yang baik dan penyembuhan tulang tanpa jaringan fibrotik. Pencampuran magnesium dengan karbonat apatit diharapkan dapat menciptakan material biodegradabel yang dapat dipakai sebagai material dasar implant orthopaedi biodegradabel.Metode: Kami memfabrikasi specimen komposit magnesium dan karbonat apatit dengan kadar yang bervariasi menggunakan metode metalurgi bubuk, milling time bervariasi 3, 5 dan 7 jam pada 200 RPM, kompaksi pada suhu 300°C dan tekanan 265 MPa, sintering pada 550°C, waktu tahan 1 jam, laju panas 5°C/menit, atmosfir ruangan biasa untuk membuat spesimen uji berbentuk silinder dan miniplate. Spesimen tersebut kemudian dilakukan uji biomekanika, biotoksisitas MTT dan kontak langsung, serta korosi.Hasil: Kami dapat memfabrikasi komposit magnesium dan karbonat apatit dengan densitas yang sama dengan tulang manusia. Spesimen komposit magnesium dengan 10% karbonat apatit memiliki biokompatibilitas yang cukup baik. Walaupun, ketahanan tekanan, ketahanan regangan, modulus elastisitas fleksural dan ketahanan korosi spesimen tersebut masih rendah dibandingkan dengan tulang manusia. Paparan terhadap material komposit ini membuat lingkungan sekitar material menjadi bersifat alkali.Diskusi: Konsolidasi antar partikel dan ukuran partikel masih kurang baik karena terbentuknya pori mikrostruktural, yang kemungkinan disebabkan oleh lapisan Mg(OH)2 dan proses oksidasi saat sintering. Hal ini menyebabkan sifat biomekanik yang rendah dan laju korosi yang tinggi. Penggunaan uji berbasis reduksi tetrazolium dapat memberikan hasil false positive, disebabkan sifat produk korosi magnesium yang bersifat reduktan. Kondisi alkali yang disebabkan material ini dapat bermanfaat bagi penyembuhan tulang dan luka. Komposit logam magnesium dan biokeramik karbonat apatit mempunyai potensi yang besar untuk menjadi material dasar implan orthopaedi biodegradabel. Modifikasi teknik fabrikasi perlu dilakukan untuk bisa meningkatkan konsolidasi antar partikel, mengecilkan ukuran partikel, meningkatkan kekuatan biomekanika, mengurangi produk korosi, serta menurunkan laju degradasi.

ABSTRACTIntroduction. The search for biodegradable orthopaedic implant is on the rally. Biomaterial for orthopaedic implant must fulfill some criteria, especially the degradation rate must be paralleled with normal bone healing timeline. Magnesium is a natural micronutrient as well as biodegradable metal with biomechanical characteristics close to that of bone. However, the degradation rate of this metal is very high and releasing H2 gas by-product as well as alkali environment. Carbonate apatite is a biological apatite which has good osteoconductivity and allow bone healing without fibrotic tissue. Fabrication of magnesium and carbonate apatite composite is expected able to produce a new biodegradable biomaterial that can be used as the base material of biodegradable orthopaedic implant.Methods. We fabricated magnesium composite specimens containing various content of carbonate apatite by powder metallurgy, various milling time (3, 5, 7 hours) at 200 RPM, warm compaction at 300°C and pressure of 265 MPa, sintering at 550°C, holding time of 1 hour, heating rate of 5°C/minutes and room atmosphere cooling. Biomechanical tests, biotoxicity tests (MTT assay and direct contact), and corrosion test were conducted.Results. We were able to fabricate magnesium-carbonate apatite composites with good density that is comparable with human bone. Magnesium composite with 10% content of carbonate apatite had good biocompatibility. Although, its flexural stress, flexural strain, flexural elasticity modulus and corrosion resistance were lower than human bone. Additionally, exposure to this material also turn the surrounding environment into alkali.Discussion: Interparticle consolidation and grain size were dissatisfactory due to microstructural pores that are possibly formed by Mg(OH)2 layer and oxidation process during sintering. These characteristics affect the low biomechanical properties and high corrosion rate. Additionally, the use of tetrazolium-based assay (MTT) may give a false positive result, as the magnesium corrosion products are reducing agent. Meanwhile, alkali condition caused by the material corrosion by-product might be beneficial for bone healing and wound healing process. Magnesium and carbonate apatite composite has enormous potential to be used as the orthopaedic biodegradable material. Modification on fabrication parameters need to be done in order to improve the interparticle consolidation, refining the grain size, improve biomechanical strength, reduce corrosion products, as well as improve the degradation rate."

"With the time available to surgeons-in-training ever dwindling, there is great emphasis placed on practical learning tools. Mirroring his earlier book on practical procedures in trauma surgery, Prof Giannoudis has produced a reference in more elective techniques. In most medical schools, most emphasis is placed on orthopaedic trauma surgery, with elective techniques often delayed until much later in a surgeon?s training."
