| Abstract | Layer-by-layer self-assembled films of molecular oligoelectrolytes were used to modify Ti–6Al–4V surfaces in order to test their ability as potential drug delivery system. With regard to medical application the in vitro behavior of the modified material was investigated. The Ti–6Al–4V (6% aluminium, 4% vanadium) material was treated in a layer-by-layer (LbL) process with 2, 4, 6 and 8 layers of molecular oligoelectrolytes 1 and 2 and thereby doped with a fluorescent reporter molecule 2. Human osteoblasts were cultured for a period up to 5 days on the modified material. Ti–6Al–4V surfaces without modification were used as control. In order to investigate the in vitro behavior of the coating as well as the influence of components of the coating on osteoblastic cells, respectively, cell proliferation, differentiation and attachment of hFOB cells were observed by means of cell number, osteoblastic gene expression and fluorescence microscopy. Degradation behavior of the OEM (oligoelectrolyte multilayer film) was examined using optical spectroscopy. Measurement data imply that the layer-by-layer coating was successfully assembled on the Ti surface and endures steam sterilization. The fluorescence signal in cell culture medium increased strictly linear with increasing pre-assembled number of layers on the surface. Proliferation rates of the cells in experimental groups did not differ significantly from each other (P ≥ 0.783). Differentiation pattern was not significantly changed by the coating. The fluorescent reporter component of the film was absorbed by osteoblastic cells and was detected by fluorescence microscopy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
