Plasma nitriding under low temperature improves the endothelial cell biocompatibility of 316L stainless steel.

abstract：:Efforts to elucidate the relationships between microorganisms and metal corrosion were mainly directed to understanding the formation of biofilm structures grown on corroded surfaces. The emergence of high throughput DNA sequencing techniques has helped in the description of microbial species involved directly and ind...
