The long term fixation of biomedical implants constitutes an issue in the clinical praxis. Implant fixation can be improved by functionalizing its surface. In fact, the tissue response around an implant is conditioned by its surface morphological and chemical properties. Coatings for implants (orthopedic and dental) function at the bone-implant fixation interface. As proved by research activities in the biomedical field, coatings with topographic features in the nano- and micro-range are promising in terms of enhanced osteointegration, thus improved implant fixation. As for surface chemistry, titanium dioxide (TiO2) is an estabilished material for biomedical implants thanks to its outstanding physical and chemical properties such as high corrosion resistance and good biocompatibility. Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) is a simple and versatile coating technique. According to literature, EPD is an emerging potential coating technique for biomedical implants. In this work, the use of EPD in the preparation of TiO2 coatings characterized by a controlled multi-scale structured surface was addressed. For this aim, EPD was combined with a new procedure of particle functionalization and with the use of a fugitive spacer (polystyrene, PS) for the sintering treatment. A control and better understanding of the EPD process were achieved through a preliminary parametric study on EPD of TiO2 nanoparticles and PS microbeads. Particle concentration was found to play a key role in the EPD deposit formation of TiO2 nanoparticles (cathodic) and PS microbeads (anodic). A threshold value of particle concentration was identified, below which no deposit growth occurred. An interpretation of this finding was provided on the base of a new formulation of the EPD deposition mechanism. The results of the particle concentration study contributed to the preparation of suspensions with TiO2-PS composite particles, which could be used for cathodic EPD. Composite TiO2-PS particles with TiO2 nanoparticles covering PS microbeads were obtained in a newly developed wet colloidal process based on heterocoagulation and the use of polyelectrolytes. The resulting TiO2-PS particles were cathodically deposited on Ti6Al4V substrates. A sintering post-treatment caused the burning out of the PS beads and the densification of the TiO2 nanoparticles. The desired coatings with controlled micro- and nano-topography were achieved. The investigation on the role of particle concentration in EPD and the new interpretation of the deposition mechanism bring a deeper understanding of the EPD process. The achievement of TiO2 coatings with controlled morphology in the micro- and nano-range prepared by cathodic EPD on Ti6Al4V substrates is a contribution to the ongoing research on biomedical implants. Mechanical tests and surface analysis evaluating wettability and in vitro cell behavior with the achieved coatings are relevant topics for further research.

The coupling between open channel-based microchip electrophoresis and mass spectrometry via electrostatic spray ionization is proposed for in situ detection of fractionated analytes. Electrophoretic separation is performed in an open channel fabricated in a plastic substrate. The solvent of background electrolyte is evaporated from the open channel because of Joule heating during electrophoresis, leaving the dried electrophoretic bands to be directly analyzed by mass spectrometry via scanning electrostatic spray ionization. Proof-of-concept results are obtained with fluorescent dyes and antibiotics as the test samples, demonstrating an efficient on-chip detection platform based on the electrophoresis and electrostatic spray ionization mass spectrometry.

On the stability and necessary electrophoretic mobility of bare oil nanodroplets in water

Hilton Barbosa De Aguiar, Sergey Kulik, Halil Ibrahim Okur, Saranya Pullanchery Sankara Narayanan, Sylvie Roke

Hydrophobic oil droplets, particles, and air bubbles can be dispersed in water as kinetically stabilized dispersions. It has been established since the 19th century that such objects harbor a negative electrostatic potential roughly twice larger than the thermal energy. The source of this charge continues to be one of the core observations in relation to hydrophobicity, and its molecular explanation is still debated. What is clear though is that the stabilizing interaction in these systems is understood in terms of electrostatic repulsion via Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek theory. Recent work [A. P. Carpenter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 116, 9214 (2019)] has added another element into the discussion, reporting the creation of bare near-zero charged droplets of oil in neat water that are stable for several days. Key to the creation of the droplets is a rigorous glassware cleaning procedure. Here, we investigate these conclusions and show that the cleaning procedure of glassware has no influence on the electrophoretic mobility of the droplets and that oil droplets with near-zero charge are unstable. We provide an alternative possible explanation for the observations involving glass surface chemistry.
