Human immortalized C28/I2 cells, originating from cells isolated from rib cartilage,21 were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM)/HAM's F‐12 medium (Biochrom, Darmstadt, Germany) supplemented with 5 % fetal bovine serum (FBS Superior; Biochrom) and antibiotic‐antimycotic solution (100 U/ml penicillin, 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin, 0.25 µg/ml amphotericin‐B; Sigma‐Aldrich) in a humidified atmosphere at 37 °C and 5 % CO2.
Human primary chondrocytes were isolated from total knee arthroplasty samples with informed consent and ethical approval by the Ethics Committee of Salzburg (415‐E/1965/4‐2015). All patients were female and all samples were macroscopically graded between 3 and 4 or 4 (Outerbridge classification). Cartilage samples of the whole tibial area and femur condyles were removed from subchondral bone, minced, washed in phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) and digested overnight in DMEM/HAM's F‐12 supplemented with FBS and 2 mg/ml collagenase Type II (275 units/mg; Thermo Fisher Scientific) at 37 °C on a shaker. After 24 h, the cells were centrifuged, washed twice with PBS, resuspended in medium and seeded as required for the following experiments. For 7‐hydroxy‐3H‐phenoxazin‐3‐one‐10‐oxide sodium salt (Resazurin) assays and Fura‐2 assays, cells were always used at the first passage.

Primary human osteoblast-like cells from four donors (2 males and 2 females, aged 60–85 years, cells isolated from the femoral head, IRB approval: EA4/035/14) in passage 2 were pooled. The patients gave written informed consent. Cells were cultured in DMEM/Ham's F-12 medium (Biochrom, Berlin, Germany) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Biochrom, Berlin, Germany), 1% penicillin/streptomycin (P/S; Biochrom, Berlin, Germany) and freshly supplemented 0.05 mM l-ascorbic acid (L-Asc) and 0.05 mM β-glycerol phosphate (β-Gly) (both Sigma-Aldrich/Merck, Darmstadt, Germany), henceforth called growth medium (GM).
The following groups were analyzed: 1) cells only (Medium), 2) titanium K-wire (CTRL), 3) porous K-wire (Porous), and 4) porous K-wire loaded with gentamicin (Genta). The porous K-wires of group 3 and 4 were coated with silver nanoparticles. For the cytocompatibility test, a toxic control was used: 5) 10% 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA; Positive). The experiments were done in triplicate and repeated once, resulting in n = 6 per group. For the experiments, 1.4 mm K-wire pieces (7 mm length) were transferred to inserts (10 mm diameter and polycarbonate membrane with 8 μm pores; Thermo Scientific/Nunc, Schwerte, Germany) and placed in the culture wells.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
