A vertically aligned bioactivity titania nanotube arrays was fabricated on the surface of titanium substrate by anodization. The nanotubes were then treated with optical deposition of silver to make them antibacterial, and to inhibition growth of bacterial in the antibacterial test in vitro. It is shown that the present of silver particle inhibition the growth staphylococcus aureus. Such bioactivity titania nanotube arrays and associated hollow tube structure can be useful as a well-adhered antibacterial bioactive surface layer on titanium implant metals for orthopaedic and dental implants.
