part of the compact portion of the specimen; rather, they reect the corrosion progress. An acid-cleaning process using chromic acid or hydrouoric acid is a suitable means of removing corrosion products without causing damage to the magnesium component (Song & Atrens, 1999). Following this treatment, the specimen should be carefully rinsed in ethanol and left to air-dry.
4.4.4 Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis

Lucas, & Meyer-Linderberg, 2009; Zhang, Xu, Yu, Pan, & Yang, 2009). SEM, which
can be performed before and after the acid-cleaning process, allows examination of the corrosion layer, i.e., the implant surface. Degradation in magnesium implants typically occurs in the form of pitting corrosion (Song & Atrens, 1999; von der H€oh et al.,
2009), which is identiable under a scanning electron microscope as a hole-like inden-
tation on the implant surface. However, the morphology of the magnesium alloy sur­face is inhomogeneous. The production process, alloy qualities, and coating properties may play a role in this.
Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis makes use of electromagnetic radiation to investigate the implant and its interfaces with regard to the composition of the individual layers (Acarturk et al., 2008). This method may additionally indicate that the implant has an osteoconductive effect (Witte et al., 2005). In terms of evaluating the outcome, however, one disadvantage is the fact that merely the elements and their concentration can be displayed, and not any compounds of these elements.
The literature contains multiple descriptions of the formation of a corrosion layer on the surface of magnesium implants during the degradation process (Witte et al., 2005;
Li et al., 2008; von der H€oh, 2009; Zhang et al., 2009; Krause et al., 2010; Thomann et al., 2010) (see Figure 4.11). Krause et al. (2010) and Thomann et al. (2010)

investigated the composition of the degradation layer of intramedullarily implanted magnesium alloys and were able to detect elements such as magnesium, oxygen, cal­cium, and phosphorous. Other studies found magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, hydroxyapatite, and complex magnesium-calcium-phosphate compounds on the sur­face of corroded magnesium implants in vivo and in vitro (Li et al., 2008; Witte
et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2009).
4.5 In vivo biocompatibility of magnesium alloys
4.5.1 Biocompatibility e general considerations (acute, chronic, and foreign-body reaction)
Implants are generally to be regarded as foreign bodies. To test their biocompati­bility, the methods to be used must first be defined. Biodegradable implants need

to satisfy p articular requirements for biocompatibility, because all implant compo­nents remain within the body or are progressively expelled. Pizzoferrato, Vespucci,
Ciapetti, and Stea (1985) coined the terms biocompatibilityand biofunctionality
in the context of cell culture. The former term has been dened by various groups (Gradinger & Gollwitzer, 2006; Wintermantel & Ha, 1996). According to Gradinger
and Gollwitzer (2006), the quantity, form, and nature of the substances released
from the implant are crucial determinants of biocompatibility, a distinction being made between biocompatibility and bioactive implants. A materials b iocompati­bility is a func tion of its compos ition, form, and surface properties, the implantation site, the condition of the implant bed, the interface between implant and tissue, and the degradation of the material, as well as the surgical technique and the mechanical loading to which the implant is subjected (Bergsma, Rozema, Bos, & De, 1993;
Epple, 2003; Rosengren, Bjursten, Danielsen, Persson, & Kober, 1999; Thull,
2003). Epple (2003) describes in his work that the properties of the interface be-
tween implant and tissue e such as chemical processes involving release of ions, pH value, adsorption of proteins and cells, and surface morphology e play a vital role. One basis for in vivo testing is that of successful in vitro outcomes. Various means of verifying biocompatibility are described in the literature, largely based on the recommendations of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 10,993-6:2009 (ISO 10993-6:2009). This standard describes three test methods: epi­cutaneous testing, bone testing, and implantation in muscle. A prerequisite for testing biocompatibility is that the implant is not subjected to any mechanical and functional stress (ISO 10993-6:2007). Histological sections may be analysed semi­quantitatively, quantitatively, or morphometrically (Be thmann & Knoer, 1987). Several authors discuss the possibility of using micro-CT images of tissue morphology to assess biocompatibility in bone (Wachter et al., 2001). The ISO 10,993-6 standard requires that the histological preparation of specimens take ac­count of the following parameters: formation of a connective-tissue capsule, occur­rence of inammatory cells, signs of degeneration, presence of necrosis, and particulate material. At the cellular level, implanted foreign material always leads to an immune response. In the rst instance, the innate immune defence system de­livers the body’s defence response, in particular involving the formation of macro- phages, neutrophil granulocytes, and natural killer cells. The macrophages respond chemotactically and also act as a link between the innate and adaptive immune re­sponses. They also have the ability to form foreign-body cells (Anderson, Rodri-
guez, & Chang, 2007). The adaptive immune response is mediated primarily by
B and T lymphocytes. Biodegradable magnesium implants give rise to degradation products that need to be eliminated by the body, so that a greater incidence of mac­rophages should not necessarily be regarded as indicating a rejection reaction (Doernberg et al., 2006). Anderson et al. (2007) describe the bodys response to implanted biomaterial over time. During the initial phase, a blood-based matrix forms at the implant site, wh ich is the basis not only for wound healing, but also for foreign-body reactions. The next phase, i.e., that of acute inammation, is char­acterised in particular by neutrophil granulocytes and is not expected to exceed 7 days. Mast cells, which secrete histamine and interleukins, perform an important
142 Surface Modication of Magnesium and its Alloys for Biomedical Applications
regulatory function during this phase. The chronic inflammatory phase is distin- guished by monocytes, lymphocytes, and plasma cells and tends to be of short dura­tion. The foreign-body reaction involves a mix of different constituent cells, and, while similar to the chronic reaction, it is the occurrence of macrophages and foreign-body giant cells that is characteristic here. Once the inammatory phase is over, granulation tissue is formed in conjunction with macrophages, broblast inl­tration, and new vessel formation. Granulation tissue is regarded as the precursor stage for the formation of a brosis layer. It is, primarily, the quantity and time of occurrence of immune cells that are crucial in assessing the bodys immunolog­ical reaction (Anderson et al., 2007)(seeFigure 4.12; 4.13 and 4.14). A strong layer of connective tissue with numerous immune cells indicates the encapsulation of the implant and, indirectly, insufcient biocompatibility (Freeman & Brook, 2006; Tsai,
Ruey-Mo, Chien-Ping, & Jiin-Huey Chern, 2008; Witte et al., 2007b).

144 Surface Modication of Magnesium and its Alloys for Biomedical Applications
4.5.2 Pharmacophysiology of magnesium and selected alloy components
Magnesium is among the elements that are essential to the body and has, using the 29 Mg isotope, been detected in small mammals (Rogers & Parker, 1959; Rogers,
Haven, & Mahan, 1960). Magnesium implants are generally characterised in clinical
experiments by good biocompatibility (Lambotte, 1932; Verbrugge, 1934; McBrideB, 1938; Nicole, 1947; Witte et al., 2005; von der H€oh et al., 2006; Witte et al., 2007; Xu
et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008). Most in vivo studies also describe the formation
(to differing extents) of hydrogen gas (Lambotte, 1932; Verbrugge, 1934; McBrideB, 1938; Nicole, 1947; Witte et al., 2005; von der H€oh et al., 2006; Witte et al., 2007b; Li
et al., 2008). However, the degradation products of corrosion exhibit different pharma-
cophysiological properties.
Because of unsuitable enzymatic conditions, hydrogen is not formed in the cells (Staiger et al., 2006). It is known, however, that hydrogen e an antioxidant e has a pro­tective effect on cells. It also shows antiinammatory properties in in vivo investigations (Atsunori, 2011; Buchholz et al., 2008; Haung et al., 2010). This formation process is described as being an important co-factor in gas production (Li et al., 2008). In vivo, the gas formed is resorbed by the surrounding tissue (Witte, Hort, et al., 2008).
The OH- ions that also form during the degradation process would, without regu­latory mechanisms, lead to strong alkalinisation of the tissue around the implant (Heublein, 2003; Song, 2007). Magnesium chloride (MgCl salt, which may lead to slight acidication of the liver and is toxic at high concent ra­tions (Franke, 1934). Magnesium ions (Mg
2þ
) that do not contribute to the formation of salts and apatites may in principle be involved in physiological metabolism. It has been suggested that magnesium ions promote bone-remodelling processes (Janning
et al., 2010; Rude et al., 2006). Apatites containing magnesium are similar to the min-
eral phase of bone, namely, hydroxylapatite Ca
(OH)(PO4)3. It is therefore likely that

apatite is involved in normal bone-remodelling processes. Several authors postulate that calcium phosphates exhibit osteoconductive properties (Li et al., 2004, 2008;
Witte et al., 2005; Xu et al., 2007).
Alloy compo nents also play a signicant role in biocompatibility; they have, in recent years, assumed an important function in the fabrication of magnesium implants in relation to their mechanical and corrosive properties. The inuence of alloy compo­nents on tissue is not fully known (Yuen & Ip, 2010) (see Table 4.5).

4.5.2.1 Aluminium
The total quantity of aluminium in the human body is (depending on weight) 0.295 g, with most of it stored in bone (Skalsky & Carchman, 1983). Aluminium is regarded as a strong neurotoxin and is thought to be one of the causative factors in Alzheimers disease (El-Rahman, 2003; Mj€oberg, Hellquist, Mallmin, & Lindh, 1997).

Calcium is the most abundant element in the human body (which contains around 1 kg) and is hormonally regulated (Civitelli & Ziambaras, 2011). Disruption of the calcium

level in the blood leads to various functional disorders of certain organs (the heart, gastrointestinal tract, and kidneys) as well as the nervous system and muscles.
4.5.2.3 Lithium
Lithium, which is present in the body only in negligible amounts, may enter the cell via sodium channels. Even a mild overdose leads to muscle weakness and vegetative symptoms. A severe overdose results in damage to the lungs and kidneys (Bichet,
2006; Giles & Bannigan, 2006; Timmer, 1999).
4.5.2.4 Zinc
Zinc is among the important trace elements and is also involved in immune system function (Lastra, Pastelin, Camacho, Monroy, & Aguilar, 2001). It is regulated in the body chiey via the gastrointestinal tract. At high concentrations, it has a neuro­toxic effect, and it is believed to be involved in development of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (Post, Eibl, & Ross, 2008).
4.5.2.5 Rare-earth elements
Rare-earth elements are present in the body only in very small quantities, with cerium apparently the most abundant in terms of weight (Inagaki & Haraguchi, 2000). Their half-life period within the body shows considerable uctuation and may be as much as 10 years (Hirano & Suzuki, 1996 ). These metalspossible antiproliferative effect on cancer cells is also discussed in the literature (Kostova, Momekov, & Stancheva,
2007). They also have a similar ionic radius to that of calcium and may act as an antag-
onist to calcium in the body (Feyerabend et al., 2010; Nakamura, Tsumura, Tonogai,
Shibata, & Ito, 1997). Gu et al. (2009) report that the rare-earth elements may also in-
uence haemolysis, chromosomal aberrations, and liver function.
A number of techniques are available for verifying in vivo biocompatibility. As these differ in the approach involved, they work together synergistically in clari­fying the issue of biocompatibility.
4.5.3 Histology
To provide information about the tissueeimplant compound and, therefore, to assess biocompatibility, histological examinations are essential (An, 2003). The specimens obtained must initially be xed. Depending on the types of tissue, decalcication may be carried out prior to the further preparation of osseous and cartilaginous spec­imens, so sections of appropriate thickness can be created. After the specimens are embedded, the sections are produced and then stained. However, owing to the decal­cication of the bone, the ne morphology and the dynamic processes in the bone are assessable only to a limited extent. A suitable method of processing decalcied sam­ples is embedding in plastic (Wolf, R€oser, Hahn, Welkerling, & Delling, 1992). The cutting-grinding technique is one of many methods that make preparation of noncal­cied bone possible (Donath, 1998).
