The aim of the course is to acquire skills and competencies in the practical use of chemical and electrochemical methods of surface layer formation and instrumental testing methods of their properties and degradation in tissue environment.
Knowledge of chemistry, electrochemistry and biomaterials.
Lecture and Laboratory: Electrochemical testing methods, formation conditions and properties of surface layer and degradation of biomaterials (corrosion testing of implants, electropolishing, passivation, anodizing, formation of nanostructured layers). Methods of microstructural examinations (optical, scanning electron SEM and transmission TEM microscopy, X-ray diffraction XRD). Properties of biomaterial/tissue interface (hydrophilic-hydrophobic properties, zeta potential, photoelectron spectroscopy: XPS, SIMS, atomic force microscopy – AFM, tunneling microscopy, infrared spectroscopy FTIR-ATR), testing of biomaterials in simulated biological environment, chemical investigation of extracts, degradation in vitro and in vivo tests. Procedures and standards of biomaterials engineering
Conventional lectures with audiovisual aids. Working with professional literature. Individual and team work on laboratory exercises.
