Abstract

With the growing interest in additive manufacturing technology, assessing the biocompatibility of manufactured elements for medical and veterinary applications has become crucial. This study aimed to investigate the corrosion properties and cytotoxicity of porous structures designed to enhance the osseointegration potential of implant surfaces. The structures were fabricated using BJ technology from 316L stainless steel powder, and their surfaces were modified with a DLC coating. The studies carried out on porous metal samples with and without DLC coatings demonstrated low cytotoxicity. However, no significant differences were found between the uncoated and DLC-coated samples, likely due to variations in the thickness of the coating on the porous samples and the occurrence of mechanical damage.
