Anodization is a promising surface modification technique for materials used in biomedical applications. Biocompatibility is an essential consideration when evaluating a material for its use in biomedical application. Unique behavior of living microorganism is the ability to deposit on various material surfaces. The biocompatibility of diversely modified Titanium oxide surfaces were investigated by measuring the mass of bacteria deposited on the surfaces immersed in stationary distilled water. Two different bacteria were used for the study namely Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In this study, the biocompatibility of diversely modified three different Titanium surfaces was analyzed using Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Nanobalance (EQCN). According to our results, electrochemically anodized Ti surfaces exhibited a very good biocompatibility than the other two surfaces.
