Figure 2. The contact angles of the specimens. The contact angles of the specimens to pure distilled water were measured by a sessile drop technique. Error bars indicate the mean + standard deviation (SD) of six specimens (n = 6). The findings were analyzed statistically by ANOVA. Significant differences were considered to exist when p < 0.01.

Figure 3. Time-course of inorganic adsorption onto the specimens. (A) Relative concentrations of titanium on the specimens. (B) Relative concentrations of oxygen on the specimens. (C) Relative concentrations of carbon on the specimens. (D) Relative concentrations of phosphorus on the specimens. (E) Relative concentrations of calcium on the specimens. (F) Relative concentrations of sodium on the specimens. Error bars indicate the mean + standard deviation (SD) of six specimens (n = 6). The time-course of each specimen and the findings of individual groups were analyzed statistically by ANOVA. Significant differences were considered to exist when p < 0.01.

Figure 4. C1s signal on the GDP specimens after 1 hr of immersion. The three peaks in the curve fit of the C1s signal on the GDP specimens after 1 hr of immersion. Peak 1 is set at 285.0 eV for -H2-, Peak 2 at 286.5 eV for -C-N-, and Peak 3 at 288 eV for -C=O-. (A) The three peaks of the curve fit of the C1s signal on the GDP+ specimens. (B) The three peaks of the curve fit of the C1s signal on the GDP- specimens.
