Abstract
A norvancomycin-loaded HA-like coating was successfully obtained on titanium surfaces. The norvancomycin incorporated had no negative effects on osteoblast cell behavior. The released norvancomycin results in excellent antibacterial activity of Ca-P coatings. Therefore, incorporation of norvancomycin can enhance antibacterial activity and the norvancomycin-loaded CP coating can be used to inhibit post-surgical infections in orthopaedics.
