The Effect of Irradiation with a 405 nm Blue-Violet Laser on the Bacterial Adhesion on the Osteosynthetic Biomaterials

Figure 3

The growth of residual bacteria on Ti and HA-PLLA. No significant difference was detected between vortex and control groups in both materials until 2–3 hours after 30 s washing with DW. In contrast, at 4–5 hours of incubation after 30 s washing with DW, more bacterial growth was observed on HA-PLLA compared with Ti in both groups. The error bars represent the standard deviation. Values are from 3 samples per group. . Circle shows HA-PLLA and square shows Ti as control.
