Biodegradable magnesium alloy was coated by nanostructured monticellite (Mon; CaMgSiO4) through electrophoretic deposition (EPD) coupled with plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) with the purpose of enhancing the corrosion properties, bioactivity, and cytocompatibility. The monticellite layer with a...
