Most of the reported work on the effect of applied potential on tribocorrosion or corrosive wear of metallic alloys in a corrosive environment were conducted at anodic potentials. Limited tests have been conducted at cathodic potentials for comparison purposes or to derive the pure mechanical wear component in tribocorrosion. This work investigated the effect of cathodic potential on the friction and wear behaviour of an important biomedical alloy, CoCrMo, sliding against an Al2O3 slider in 0.9% NaCl solution at 37 °C. High friction was found at cathodic potentials close to the open circuit potential, where mechanical wear played a predominant role in material removal. At potentials more cathodic than the hydrogen charging potential, low friction and low wear were observed. The coefficient of friction (COF) and total material loss decreased with increasing cathodic potential, such that at −1000 mV (saturated calomel electrode, SCE), extremely low COF values, as low as 0.02, and negligible material loss were obtained. Such reductions in friction and wear at increasing cathodic potentials were accompanied with the formation of parallel lines in the sliding track and were gradually diminished with increasing applied contact load. It is believed that hydrogen charging and hydrogen segregated layer formation at the surface are responsible for such a phenomenon. It can also be concluded that it is difficult to derive the pure mechanical wear component in tribocorrosion by simply conducting a test at an arbitrary cathodic potential.

HeLa cells were grown for 2-3 days in EAGLE'S minimum essential medium with 10% calf serum (S-MEM; Seromed, München) and then incubated for 24 hours in serum free medium (MEM). After detaching the cells with a solution of 0. 14 % EDTA and 0. 07 % trypsin (Difco, 1 : 250) they were suspended in various solutions (S-MEM = control, MEM, buffered salt solutions with or without Me++ions, 0. 9 % NaCl solution) and allowed to settle on glass tube slips (Leighton-tubes). After 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 1 45, 60 minutes 2, 3, 4, 5 hours cells were prepared for scanning electron microscopy as described by Paweletz and Schroeter. The preparations were examined in a Jeol SEM (JSM-U3) at 25 KV without tilting.The suspended spherical HeLa cells are able to adhere to the glass support in all solutions. The rate of attachment, however, is faster in solutions without serum than in the control. The latter is in agreement with the findings of other authors.

Asbestos is a generic name for a group of hydrated mineral silicates that occur naturally in a fibrous form. The early interactions of asbestos fibers with alveolar cells in large part determines their long-term toxicity. Young adult, SPF, Fischer rats were given a single intratracheal instillation of 2 mg crocidolite asbestos suspended in 0.5 ml of 0.9% NaCl solution. About 80% of the fibers had lengths of less than 10 ym as measured on light micrographs of the fiber suspension. Two rats were killed at 3 hr, 1 d and 1, 4, 8, 12 and 16 wk after instillation and the lungs instilled with 8 ml McDowell - Trumps at 20 cm H2O. Lung tissue was dehydrated and sputtered coated with palladium-gold for SEM or post-fixed in osmium tetroxide, embedded in epoxy resin and sections stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate for TEM.
