[Biocompatibility of a chromium-cobalt alloy studied in vitro]

The authors followed the effect of chromcobalt alloy on human cells cultured in vitro. They found out that corrosion increases the cytotoxicity of this alloy, meanwhile the perfectly laboratory elaboration, especially polishing of substitution decreases the cytotoxicity. We recommend for the complex cytotoxicity review, to test the metals and alloys also after laboratory elaboration, it means in the condition it is passed on to the patient.
