Learning from the mussel, scientists create a biologically active titanium surface
Based on insights from mussels -- which are able to attach themselves very tightly to even metallic surfaces due to special proteins found in their byssal threads -- scientists have successfully attached a biologically active molecule to a titanium surface, paving the way for implants that can be more biologically beneficial. Ref. Source 4x.
