The data set to paper: Hydrolytic instability of laser-ablatively deposited CaSi2 coatings in air and neutral water affects the behavior of bone healing-related cell types

Main message of this study is focused on calcium silicide (CaSi2) instability in humid air or pH-neutral water remains unknown, although the topochemical formation of silicene from CaSi2 in various aqueous phases is a well-known process. The reseach reports on laser ablation of CaSi2 in the vacuum and ethanol and examine the instability of the deposited coatings in humid air and neutral water. We further investigate the behavior of human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs), vascular cells (HUVECS, human umbilical vein endothelial cells), and macrophages (derived from THP-1 cell line) in contact with the deposited coatings submerged in cell culture medium.
