Abstract
The study follow the improvement of properties of cobalt base alloys, used in medical applications. This scope targeted the obtaining of alloys with friendly biological interactions to human body. If the original variants of CoCrMoSik (k = 4, 5, 6, 7) alloys don't subjected to the criteria of biological acceptance from animal body, these don't be placed in live body, indifferent the adequacy of the biomaterials properties. Realization of the original alloy variants must consider and the possibility to appear the base pathophysiological phenomena, with determine or not their safety on long time (generate of thrombosis, inflammation, infection and / or inducing and causing neoplasms).
