In the present study, combinations of a phosphonato silane with a precursor, Methyltriethoxy silane (MTEOS) in various ratios were applied onto the alloy Mg-6Zn-Ca. The corrosion resistance of the coated and uncoated specimens in a modified simulated body fluid (m-SBF) was characterized by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Results suggest that the silane coating significantly decreases the degradation rate of the magnesium alloy, indicating its potential to be used as a corrosion barrier for magnesium alloy temporary implants.

This paper reports on a feasibility study of electrochemical in-vitro detection of prostate cancer biomarker PCA3 (prostate cancer antigen 3) in direct assay with specific RNA aptamer labelled with a redox group (ferrocene) and immobilized on a screen-printed gold electrode surface. The cyclic voltammograms and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods yield encouraging results on the detection of PCA3 in a range of concentrations from 1 μg/mL down to 0.1 ng/mL in buffer solutions. Both anodic and cathodic current values in cyclic voltammograms measurements and charge transfer resistance values in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments correlate with the PCA3 concentration in the sample. Kinetics studies of the binding of the PCA3 to our aptamer demonstrated high specificity of the reaction with a characteristic affinity constant of approximately 4·10−10 molar. The results of this work provide a background for the future development of novel, highly sensitive and cost-effective diagnostic methodologies for prostate cancer detection.

Tricalcium phosphate cement (α-TCP) can be used in various fields of health, including as drug delivery systems. The application of a biomaterial based on α-TCP could enable both the constant drug delivery as support and shape damaged muscleskeletics tissues until which can be regenerated by the organism itself, replacing the biomaterial, while maintaining stable levels of the drug in the organism. The aim of this study was to evaluate the release of gentamicin sulfate using the technique of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in drug delivery systems of α-TCP. The results obtained in vitro study validated the proposed methodology for assessment of controlled drug delivery systems on the basis of α-TCP.
