Enhancing Titanium Surface Properties with Castor Oil-Based Polyurethane: A Sustainable and Low-Cytotoxicity Approach
Castor oil-based PU proved to be a viable and environmentally friendly alternative for titanium implant coatings, with promising physicochemical and biological properties. MTT assay results demonstrated no significant cytotoxic effect, suggesting the potential for future in vivo biocompatibility studies.
