Orthopedic metallic medical devices are essential in the treatment of a wide range of skeletal diseases and disabilities. However, they are often related with surgery complications due to acute prosthetic joint infections (PJI) causing devastating complications. Gallium (Ga) antibacterial activity has been recently demonstrated: in aqueous solutions, Ga ionize in a trivalent form Ga³⁺ that can replace Fe³⁺ in bacterial metabolism thus leading to bacteria death. However, it is not yet clear whether such effect is typical to Ga³⁺ release, and how this would affect longer term performance. Here we investigated Ga addition into titanium alloys using metallurgical methods. The study has confirmed that metallurgical addition of gallium even in small amounts (1–2% wt.) to titanium alloys have highly efficient antibacterial function without any visible cytostatic or cytotoxic effects. The presence of gallium within the metal matrix might ensure that antibacterial effect will persist for a long time towards multi-drug resistant S. aureus, which might not be possible if gallium or other metal are only in thin degradable coatings or similar formulations. A 5-logs decrease in CFU number was detected for alloys with 2% Ga and more after 72 h (alamar blue and CFU count assays). The alloys also show to be in vitro cytocompatible with both mature U2OS osteoblasts and progenitor pre-osteoblasts hFOB. Since gallium is metallurgically analogous to aluminium in titanium alloys, it might be used without affecting other alloy properties.
