Biodegradable polymers, because their degradation products are small molecules that do not cause immune system rejection, have been increasingly used by researchers to explore the preparation of scaffold with excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this study, nano-hydroxyapatite and polybutylene succinate were mixed by solution-blending to prepare a porous scaffold that could be used in the biomedical industry. Based on the viewpoint of bionics, porous scaffold with well pore structure and uniform dispersion of nano-hydroxyapatite particles was prepared using ethanol as a porogen. When ethanol was used as a porogen to prepare the porous scaffold, the effects of different mass ratios of nano-hydroxyapatite and polybutylene succinate on the porosity and pore structure of the porous scaffold were investigated under the same amount of ethanol. The mercury intrusion tests showed that the porosity of the 30 nano-hydroxyapatite/polybutylene succinate porous scaffold was 38.987%. The experiment results of in vitro mineralization and cell culture showed that the porous scaffolds have good osteogenic capacity and cell compatibility, including attachment and proliferation. All experiment results indicated that ethanol can be used as a porogen to prepare nano-hydroxyapatite/polybutylene succinate porous scaffold, and it has great potential as a scaffold for bone tissue engineering.

A New Technique

Autografting is a bone replacement technique used in orthopedic surgery. Bone tissue engineering is a new technique that offers promise, and could help alleviate this risk. Bioceramics, biopolymers or composite can be fabricated for artificial bone scaffold and used for bone regeneration. This study used three types of biomaterials – hydroxyapatite (HA), fibroin, and chitosan – to form porous scaffold. HA and fibroin were prepared from natural materials. HA was synthesized from mollusk shell by wet chemical precipitation method, while silk fibroin was extracted from silk worm’s cocoons. The HA and fibroin were mixed in a variety of ratios along with a fixed amount of chitosan before fabricating composite porous scaffolds by freeze-drying. The resulting scaffolds were evaluated for biodegradability, biocompatibility, porosity pore morphology and mechanical property. The fabricated scaffolds had an interconnected porous structure with a pore size of 200-400 μm and porosity in a range of 93-95%. The average degradation rate of the scaffold in lysozyme was between 7-17% at 7 days. A biocompatibility test showed that the scaffold was non-cytotoxic, making it a good candidate for future bone tissue engineering applications.

Bone tissue engineering is an advanced field for treatment of fractured bones to restore/regulate biological functions. Biopolymeric/bioceramic-based hybrid nanocomposite scaffolds are potential biomaterials for bone tissue because of biodegradable and biocompatible characteristics. We report synthesis of nanocomposite based on acrylic acid (AAc)/guar gum (GG), nano-hydroxyapatite (HAp NPs), titanium nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs), and optimum graphene oxide (GO) amount via free radical polymerization method. Porous scaffolds were fabricated through freeze-drying technique and coated with silver sulphadiazine. Different techniques were used to investigate functional group, crystal structural properties, morphology/elemental properties, porosity, and mechanical properties of fabricated scaffolds. Results show that increasing amount of TiO2 in combination with optimized GO has improved physicochemical and microstructural properties, mechanical properties (compressive strength (2.96 to 13.31 MPa) and Young’s modulus (39.56 to 300.81 MPa)), and porous properties (pore size (256.11 to 107.42 μm) and porosity (79.97 to 44.32%)). After 150 min, silver sulfadiazine release was found to be ~94.1%. In vitro assay of scaffolds also exhibited promising results against mouse pre-osteoblast (MC3T3-E1) cell lines. Hence, these fabricated scaffolds would be potential biomaterials for bone tissue engineering in biomedical engineering.

Beta Tricalcium Phosphate

Beta-tricalcium phosphate bioceramics are widely used as bone replacement scaffolds in bone tissue engineering. The purpose of this study is to develop beta-tricalcium phosphate scaffold with the optimum mechanical properties and porosity and to identify the effect of N-acetyl-L-cysteine loaded to beta-tricalcium phosphate scaffold on the enhancement of biocompatibility. The various interconnected porous scaffolds were fabricated using slurries containing various concentrations of beta-tricalcium phosphate and different coating times by replica method using polyurethane foam as a passing material. It was confirmed that the scaffold of 40 w/v% beta-tricalcium phosphate with three coating times had optimum microstructure and mechanical properties for bone tissue engineering application. The various concentration of N-acetyl-L-cysteine was loaded on 40 w/v% beta-tricalcium phosphate scaffold. Scaffold group loaded 5 mM N-acetyl-L-cysteine showed the best viability of MC3T3-E1 preosteoblastic cells in the water-soluble tetrazolium salt assay test.
