Dual-functional titanium implants via polydopamine-mediated lithium and copper co-incorporation: synergistic enhancement of osseointegration and antibacterial efficacy

IntroductionOrthopedic implant failure due to inadequate osseointegration and infection remains a critical challenge. To address this, we engineered a polydopamine (PDA)-mediated dual-functional platform for lithium (Li+) and copper (Cu2+) co-incorporation on titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) implants, aimin...
