Publisher Copyright: © 2024 by the authors.; This study explores a method that has the potential to be cost effective in inhibiting biofilm formation on metallic prostheses, thereby preventing rejection or the requirement for replacement. A cost-effective metal alloy used in biomedical implants was chosen as the substrate, and ibuprofen (Ibu), a well-known anti-inflammatory drug, was selected for drug release t...
