The contributions to this special issue will discuss state-of-the-art techniques and procedures to deposit coatings on surfaces of medical implants and devices with osseoconductive and/or osseoinductive functionality, as well as favorable tribological properties to limit friction between articulating parts of hip and knee endoprostheses. Important aspects of contributions will include in vitro testing of salient coating properties as well as in vivo proof of their biological efficacy as provided by vitality, proliferation and spreading tests of established cell lines as well as determination of upregulation of various cell growth-supporting proteins.
