Adherence Condition of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis on 2 Kinds of Artificial Joint Interface
Abstract： Objective To compare the adherence condition of mycobacterium tuberculosis on 2 kinds of artificial joint interface. Meth-ods The Chromium-Cobalt-Alloy with hydroxyapatite ceramic coating and porous coating were cocultured with the bacterial liquid of myco-bacterium tuberculosis. The optical density of mycobacterium tuberculosis in different interfaces were detected by turbidimetry. Adherence conditions were observed by electron microscope scanning. Results There was no significant difference between two groups in the optical density value (P>0.05). The electron microscope scanning showed that more mycobacterium tuberculosis adhered to the porous coating than hydroxyapatite ceramic coating (P<0.05). Conclusion The hydroxyapatite ceramic coating has more advantages to the porous coating in prosthetic replacement for patients with joint tuberculosis.
