Developing antimicrobial biomaterials is a major challenge in the fields of orthopaedic and dental implants. In this study, we evaluated the bone-bonding ability and antibacterial activity of a novel biomaterial for preventing implant-associated infections. We have previously reported that NaOH heat treatment improved the bone-bonding ability of titanium, which was later modified to release target ions from the calcium titanate surface. Iodine, an essential nutrient, exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity; hence, we designed a calcium titanate that releases iodine ions (Ca-I-Ti). The material was prepared from a simple solution using heat treat-ments as well as inexpensive devices and chemical agents. MC3T3-E1 cells seeded on Ca-I-Ti displayed high degrees of bioactivity and viability, and Ca-I-Ti exhibited antibacterial activity against methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo biomechanical and histological experiments showed that Ca-I-Ti had excellent bone-bonding ability at 8 weeks after implantation. In a subcutaneous infection model in rats, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus on the implant was reduced by approximately 95% compared to that on commercially pure titanium, indicating that Ca-I-Ti has antibacterial effects in vivo. In addition, no local or systemic complications were observed, and active infection in the surrounding tissues was histologically inhibited. Thus, iodine-containing calcium titanate is a safe biomaterial with excellent bioactivity and antibac-terial properties, indicating its potential in preventing implant-associated infections.
