What happens when the metal has friction with ceramic? What affect do these particles have one me,you or anybody if they enter our blood or other bodily parts?
Well, I figure it is a little like rubbing metal on a stone – the metal gets sharper as metal fragments are rubbed off and the stone gets worn away producing dust and grit.
So using my farm-boy logic it seems than you end up with a mix of metal fragments, grit, and synovial fluid – effectively a grinding paste.
And I would imagine that the metal then gets into the tissue, the cobalt dissolves, and you get raised cobalt ions in the blood. The cobalt ions also kill off the bone cells and tissue. The chrome tends to lodge more in the tissues – giving the grey messy look they find – cobalt salts tend to be blue if in great enough concentrations.
That was my point with the analysis of the data on the new ceramic on metal device DePuy have just released – the data shows that cobalt levels go up…
