- Abstract
- Being a natural and renewable polysaccharide, pectin (PC) is considered a polymer with promising potential for many applications. In the present investigation, novel multifunctional pectin/polypyrrole (PC/PPy) composite coatings loaded with gentamicin (GM) were electrochemically deposited on TiNbZr alloy to enhance its bio-compatibility, antibacterial performance and corrosion resistance in physiological environment. Various surface and structural characterization techniques were deployed to examine the composite coatings. in vitro corrosion analysis con firmed that the composite coated TiNbZr specimen exhibited higher corrosion resistant performance in simulated body fluid (SBF). The drug release kinetics was estimated and the results corroborated the sustained release of GM from the controlled degradation of the composite matrix. The pectin composite coatings exhibited effective antibacterial performance; due to the sustained release of GM. In-vitro cell culture studies validated the improved biocompatibility of the composite coatings. Among the developed coatings, composite coatings loaded with 10 wt. % of GM exhibited the lowest corrosion rate, enhanced biocompatibility, and antibacterial performance.
