Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the initial adhesion morphology and alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) of murine pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells on anatase/rutile mixed-phase TiO2 thin films with photo-catalytic activity that previously confirmed antibacterial properties. Materials & Methods: Anatase/rutile mixed-phase TiO2 thin films fabricated by anodization and annealing of cpTi were cultured by MC3T3-E1 to evaluate the initial cellular adhesion morphology and ALP activity in vitro under non-UV based conditions. Results: MC3T3-E1 cells exhibited different morphological behaviors on anatase/rutile mixed-phase TiO2 thin films. Anatase/ rutile mixed-phase TiO2 thin films presented similar ALP levels with cpTi surfaces and the control group after cell culture day 9. Conclusion: Anodizing and annealing processes fabricate multifunctional surfaces on cpTi with improved initial osteogenic properties for implants under non-UV based conditions.
