Titanium (Ti) is the material of choice for orthopaedic applications because it is biocompatible and encourages osteoblast growth. The present study was devised to compare the osteoblast functions on nano-crystalline titanium oxide films produced by an ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) technique with the osteoblast functions on micro-crystalline orthopaedic-grade titanium. To characterize the biocompatibility of these surfaces, we have studied cell adhesion, growth, and differentiation on different samples. Cell responses to surfaces were examined using the human osteosarcoma cell line (SAOS-2) with osteoblastic properties. To compare cell adhesion and growth, DAPI-stained nuclei were counted using ImageJ and Metamorph software. Immunofluorescence …
