01
Overview
Titanium is a transition metal (atomic number 22, symbol Ti) known for its outstanding strength-to-density ratio, corrosion resistance, and high biocompatibility[1][2][4][6]. It is widely employed for aerospace, industrial, and medical uses, including implants and prostheses, due to its combination of high strength, low density, and resistance to bodily fluids[4][2][6]. Titanium is not a biological macromolecule or therapeutic target but is valued for its physical and chemical properties in engineering and biomedicine. Titanium is often confused as a "target" due to its prevalence in medical devices, but it is not a receptor, enzyme, or molecular biological entity in the drug discovery sense. It should not be considered a valid entry in drug target databases.
