The incorporation of magnesium in the synthetic apatite has been associated with biomineralization process and osteoporosis therapy in human and animals. Magnesium easily replaces calcium in the apatite lattice and influences or controls the hydroxyapatite crystallization processes. In this work, Mg-substituted calcium deficient apatite, with Mg/Ca ratio = 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 were synthesized by precipitation method. Then, sintered at 1000 oC and compared with a commercial product labeled as tricalcium phosphate sintered at the 1000 oC. The sintered products showed tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) structure. The Mg2+ substitution in the Ca(4) and Ca(5) sites of β-TCP and the lattice parameter changes were estimated using the Rietveld method. Using this method, the formulas Ca2.73(Mg0.27)(PO4)2, Ca2.71(Mg0.29)(PO4)2 and Ca2.70(Mg0.23Mg0.07)(PO4)2 were calculated for the samples with Mg/Ca ratio = 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 respectively.

AbstractThis study is aimed at investigating the features of mineralization of the enamel apatite at initial stages of fluorosis development. Samples of teeth with intact and fluorotic enamel in an early stage of the disease development (Thylstrup–Fejerskov Index = 1–3) were studied by Raman scattering and FTIR using Infrared Microspectroscopy beamline at Australian Synchrotron equipment. Based on the data obtained by optical microspectroscopy and calculation of the coefficient R [A-type/B-type], which represents the ratio of carbonation fraction of CO32−, replacing phosphate or hydroxyl radicals in the enamel apatite lattice, the features of mineralization of enamel apatite in the initial stages of development of the pathology caused by an increased content of fluorine in the oral cavity were established. Statistical analysis of the data showed significant differences in the mean values of R [A-type/B-type] ratio between the control and experimental groups for surface layers (p < 0.01). The data obtained are potentially significant as benchmarks in the development of a new approach to preventive diagnostics of the development of initial and clinically unregistered stages of human teeth fluorosis, as well as personalized control of the use of fluoride-containing caries-preventive agents.

In this study silicon release from SiHA into tissue culture medium was investigated under static and semi-dynamic conditions. The effect of silicon release under semi-dynamic conditions on alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and collagen I (CICP) expression by osteoblast like cells (HOS TE85) was also examined. Under static conditions a low level of silicon was released within 24 hours, this initial level dropped over 3-7 days but subsequently increased again by 10-14 days. Under semi-dynamic conditions silicon was released within 24 hours and was subsequently reduced with each medium change until equilibrating at close to 0 after 10 days. ALP and CICP showed significant variation in expression between culture conditions. In direct contact with SiHA ALP peaked at day 10 and CICP was constantly elevated. Cells grown in the presence of but not on SiHA expressed progressively decreasing levels of ALP from 7-14 days, with CICP peaking at day 10. On thermanox (TMX) ALP constantly increased and CICP peaked at day 10. The results indicate that silicon leaches out of the lattice of the SiHA crystal structure but may also be reprecipitated onto the substrate. We have also demonstrated that Si influences osteoblast metabolism and differentiation whether it is available as free silicon or 'bound' in the apatite lattice.

Fluoride is an essential trace element for normal skeletal growth and maintenance. As fluoride intake can lead to increased skeletal mass, fluoride in the form of NaF is being used clinically in the treatment of osteoporosis. The mechanisms by which fluoride affects bone is poorly understood. NaF administration has been found to increase the rate of bone formation along with an increase in the number of osteoblast cells. Fluoride has been also shown to increase the crystallinity of bone apatite by substituting for hydroxylions in the apatite lattice, rendering bone mineral less soluble and more stable.In our study we undertook to elucidate further the effects of fluoride on bone mineral. Eight mature female rats (250-300 g) were divided into control and fluoride-treated groups with 4 rats in each group. The fluoridetreated rats were given a fixed amount of supplemental NaF in their water and food: the control group was given distilled water and no supplemental fluoride. The animals were sacrificed 7 weeks later.

Peroxide ions in apatite provides an additional resource for imparting an antibacterial capability in apatite. A hydrothermal process has been developed for including peroxide ions into the apatite lattice. Three oxygen generation compounds, hydrogen peroxide, ammonium persulphate and paracetic acid were investigated for peroxyapatite generation. Hydrogen peroxide provides the highest peroxide containing apatite. Both the oxygen generation and the apatite lattice formation represented the two critical factors for producing peroxyapatite. Unlike with high temperature processing, the cooling rate did not influence the retained peroxide content. This new process provides a building block for investigating antibacterial properties of peroxyapatite in a low temperature process.

ABSTRACTApatite-type oxides, La10-x(Si/Ge)6O26+z, have been attracting significant interest recently due to their high oxide ion conductivities. Most of the work so far has focused on the Si based systems, since the Ge based systems suffer from problems attributed to Ge loss. In this paper we show that doping divalent cations on the La site or B on the Ge site helps to stabilise the hexagonal apatite lattice for these Ge based systems. These doped phases show high oxide ion conductivities, although results from extended sintering studies suggest that Ge loss is still a problem. In order to limit Ge loss, we have also examined Bi doping to lower the sintering temperature and preliminary results for the novel Bi containing apatite-type phases, La6Bi2M2Ge6O26 (M=Mg, Sr, Ba) and La8-xBi2Ge5GaO26+y, are also reported.

Abstract Solid products obtained from calcium hydroxylapatite suspensions in diluted VO2+ solutions, under different experimental conditions, were investigated by means of X-ray powder diffractometry and IR and ESR spectroscopy. It is demonstrated that the VO2+ cation cannot be incorporated into the apatite-lattice but is strongly adsorbed on the surface of the material. Different aspects of this adsorption were thoroughly investigated. The ESR spectra suggest an inhomogeneous distribution of the adsorbed species and the generation of O = V (O)4 moieties, which show a high stability towards oxidation.
