Ideally, when using these alloys is to delay the onset of degradation so that the implant can support body loads and avoid toxicological effects due to the release of metal ions into the body.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Standardized procedures according to ASTM F-1264 and ISO-10993-5 were used, respecting detailed methodological controls to ensure accuracy and reproducibility of the results, this testing methodology is carried out in accordance with the monographs of the Pharmacopoeia for the approval of medical devices and obtaining a health registration. An intramedullary implant (IIM) manufactured in magnesium (Mg) WE43 can support loads of the body in the initial period of bone consolidation without compromising the integrity of the fractured area. A system with these characteristics would improve morbidity and health costs by avoiding secondary surgical interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>As a property, the fatigue resistance of Mg in aggressive environments such as the body environment undergoes progressive degradation, however, the autoclave sterilization method drastically affects fatigue resistance, as demonstrated in tests carried out under in vitro conditions. Coupled with this phenomenon, the relatively poor biocompatibility of Mg WE43 alloys has limited applications where they can be used due to low acceptance rates from agencies such as the FDA. However, Mg alloy with elements such as yttrium and rare earth elements (REEs) have been shown to delay biodegradation depending on the method of sterilization and the physiological solution used. With different sterilization techniques, it may be possible to keep toxicological effects to a minimum while still ensuring a balance between the integrity of fractured bone and implant degradation time. Therefore, the evaluation of fatigue resistance of WE43 specimens sterilized and tested in immersion conditions (enriched Hank\u2019s solution) and according to ASTM F-1264, along with the morphological, crystallinity, and biocompatibility characterization of the WE43 alloy allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the mechanical and biological properties of WE43.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These results will support decision-making to generate a change in the current perspective of biomaterials utilized in medical devices (MDs), to be considered by manufacturers and health regulatory agencies. An implant manufactured in WE43 alloy can be used as an intramedullary implant, considering keeping elements such as yttrium-REEs below as specified in its designation and with the help of a coating that allows increasing the life of the implant in vivo.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40824-021-00207-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,6]],"date-time":"2021-04-06T08:02:26Z","timestamp":1617696146000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Effect of sterilization on 3-point dynamic response to in vitro bending of an Mg implant"],"prefix":"10.34133","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Luis Humberto Campos","family":"Becerra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Nuevo Le\u00f3n (UANL), Pedro de Alba S\/N, ciudad universitaria, San Nicol\u00e1s de los Garza, NL, Mexico."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marco Antonio Loudovic Hern\u00e1ndez","family":"Rodr\u00edguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Nuevo Le\u00f3n (UANL), Pedro de Alba S\/N, ciudad universitaria, San Nicol\u00e1s de los Garza, NL, Mexico."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ra\u00fal Lesso","family":"Arroyo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica., Biomec\u00e1nica, Instituto Tecnol\u00f3gico de Celaya (ITC), Av.
