▎ 摘　　要

Titanium (Ti) was an excellent medical metal material, but the lack of good antibacterial activity confined its further practical application. To solve this dilemma, a coating containing graphene oxide (GO) and copper (Cu) was prepared on the surface of Ti sheet (Ti/APS/GO/Cu). First, physical sterilization could be carried out through the sharp-edged sheet structure of GO. Second, the oxygen-containing functional group on the surface of GO and the released Cu2+ would generate reactive oxygen species for chemical sterilization. The synergistic effect of GO and Cu substantially enhanced the in vitro and in vivo antibac-terial property of Ti sheet, thereby reducing bacterial-related inflammation. Quantitatively, the antibac-terial rate of Ti/APS/GO/Cu against E. coli or S. aureus reached over 99%. Besides, Ti/APS/GO/Cu showed excellent biocompatibility and no toxicity to cell. Such work developed multiple sterilization avenues to design non-antibiotic, safe and efficient antibacterial implant material for the biomedical domain.(c) 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
