The sol-gel method provides a wide variety of applications in the medical field. One of these applications is the formation of coatings on the metal implants. The coatings containing specific additive can enhance or improve the existing surface properties of the substrate. In this work, titania sol-gel coatings were doped with two forms of silver (AgNO3, Ag3PO4) and synthetic hydroxyapatite and applied on the titanium samples by dip-coating technique. After drying and slow firing, all coatings were characterized with scanning electron microscopy. Thin coatings were successfully prepared with excellent adhesion to the substrate (measured by ASTM D 3359-2), despite cracks. Coatings containing silver and hydroxyapatite demonstrated a 100% antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli after 24 h. The bioactivity of the coatings containing hydroxyapatite tested in modified simulated body fluid under static-dynamic conditions was confirmed by bone-like hydroxyapatite precipitation. To better understand the interaction of the coatings with simulated body fluid (SBF), changes of Ca2+ and (PO4)3− ions concentrations and pH values were studied.

Novel silica-based bioactive glasses were successfully prepared by the sol-gel method. The optimized glass composition for fabrication of the scaffolds was (in mol.%) 60% SiO2 – 30% CaO - 5% Na2O - 5% P2O5 (60S30C5N5P). This composition was confirmed to develop a thick hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) layer in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) after 7 days, as revealed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), indicating the bioactive character of the scaffolds. The mesoporous nature of the glass structure allows the load of tetracycline and a sustained release of the drug in PBS during 7 days was measured.

The formation of a carbonate-containing hydroxyapatite, HCAp, layer on bioactive calcium silicate sol-gel glass of the formula (CaO)0.3(SiO2)0.7 has been studied in-vitro in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF). Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS), X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements have been performed with results showing the formation of a significantly amorphous HCAp layer after less than 5 hours in solution.

The low crystalline hydroxyl carbonate apatite forming capacity of a poly (70lactic-co-30glycolic acid)/15CaO-85SiO2 composite, which had a dual pore structure, was newly examined in simulated body fluid. The bioactive 15CaO-85SiO2 particles were synthesized by a sol-gel method using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and calcium nitrate tetrahydrate under acidic condition followed by the heat treatment at 600°C for 3h. The poly (70lactic-co-30glycolic acid)/15CaO-85SiO2 composite was then prepared by a solvent casting using dimethylformide as a solvent. The composite was loaded into a high pressure chamber and then carbon dioxide gas was introduced achieving a final pressure of 20 MPa. After 3 days, carbon dioxide gas was released quickly and resultantly the dual pore structure was obtained. The samples were observed by FE-SEM and its bioactivity was tested in simulated body fluid.

Use of Magnesium alloys as body implants are breaking into a new paradigm of biomedical engineering as they are biocompatible, biodegradable and have mechanical properties close to that of bone. Even though corrosion fatigue (CF) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) failures are among the most common concerns for metallic implants, CF behaviour of magnesium alloys in physiological environments has received little attention. This article reports the CF results of a common cast magnesium alloy (AZ91D) in modified simulated body fluid (m-SBF). Results showed that there was a remarkable difference in fatigue strength of Mg alloys when tests were performed in m-SBF.
