Abstract In this study, titanium (Ti) surface was modified by anodizing with a mixture of β-glycerophosphate sodium and calcium (Ca) acetate, and the anodized surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electron probe microanalysis. In vitro osteoblast response to anodized oxide was also evaluated. The anodic oxide produced was observed to have interconnected pores (0.5–2 μm in diameter) and intermediate roughness (0.60–1.00 μm). In addition, anodic oxide was observed to have amorphous and anatase oxide. Calcium and phosphorus ions were deposited on the Ti oxide during anodization. Osteoblast differentiation, as indicated by alkaline phosphatase production, was enhanced on anodized surfaces. It was thus concluded from this study that Ca phosphate can be deposited on Ti surfaces by anodization. It was also concluded that the phenotypic expression of osteoblast was enhanced by the presence of Ca phosphate and higher roughness on anodized Ti surfaces.

The application of a hybrid composite consisting of biopolymer and calcium phosphate, similar morphology and properties of natural bone, may be a way to solve the problem of the fragility of ceramics without reducing its mechanical properties, retaining the properties of biocompatibility and high bioactivity. This work aims at the preparation and characterization of three-dimensional scaffolds composite HA / biopolymers (chitosan and gelatin). The freeze-drying technique was employed in this study to obtain these frameworks and partial results showed the effectiveness of this method. This involved the study of structural, chemical and morphological frameworks, in order to direct the research suggested the application. The X Ray Diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy and Fourier transform (FTIR) results confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) phase and the presence of characteristic bands of HA and biopolymers in all compositions. The microstructure of the scaffolds study conducted by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed the formation of longitudinally oriented microchannels with interconnected pores. In all compositions the porous scaffolds showed varying sizes and mostly larger than 100μm, and is therefore considered materials with potential for application in bone tissue engineering.

Background: The polymeric hydrocolloids of natural origin such as gums and mucilages have their own significance in food and pharmaceutical industries due to safety, cost, biodegradability, biocompatibility, etc. Objective: This study includes the assessment of feasibility of gummy exudates of Cochlospermum religiosum for development of microspheres through emulsification technique. Methods: The effects of exudates concentration, glutaraldehyde amount and process temperature were analyzed on particle-size and swelling dynamics of developed microspheres. The formulations were also characterized by thermal decomposition and powder X-ray diffraction technique to assess the effect of crosslinking. Results: The photomicrographs of preparations revealed the formation of microspheres with smooth, spherical and free-flowing nature. The swelling dynamics followed Fick’s diffusion mechanism for swelling media. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed the formation of ether-linkage after crosslinking of exudates by glutaraldehyde. The thermogravimetric curves disclosed the formation of strong bonds during crosslinking. Conclusion: The ease of gummy exudates of Cochlospermum religiosum for microspheres formation ascribed the potential of these formulations to incorporate therapeutic agent(s) to be applied as novel drug-carriers.

Inductive Behavior

The main objective of this study is to characterize the in vitro osteo inductive behavior of pearl nano crystallites. The results obtained from X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, and inductively coupled plasma mass (ICP-MS) analysis demonstrate that the pearls can induce the formation of a hydroxyl apatite (HA) layer on their surface in simulated body fluid (SBF), even after only short soaking periods. Further, MC3T3-E1 cells can easily attach and spread on the pearl powders after 1 h of cultivation.

The ceramics in the system CaO–MgO–SiO2 has recently attracted a great deal of attention because they display a good in vitro bioactivity and have potential use as bone implants. Biphasic calcium-magnesium-silicate ceramics were prepared by a sol-gel method. The dried gel with chemical composition 3CaO.MgO.2SiO2 was thermally treated at 1200 °C for 2 hrs. The structural behavior of the synthesized ceramics was examined by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Merwinite crystalline phase and akermanite phase were recognized. Then, porous akermanite/merwinite scaffolds were prepared to utilize polymer sponge method and evaluated by employing SEM. Furthermore, bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) adhesion and proliferation on the scaffolds were evaluated by MTT assay test. Differentiation of the cells was assessed by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. The results demonstrated that BMSC adhered and spread well on akermanite scaffolds and proliferated with the increase in the culture time, and the differentiation rate of osteoblasts on scaffolds was comparable to that on blank culture plate control. Thus, the obtained results presented that the akermanite/merwinite scaffolds deserve attention for bone tissue engineering applications.

Hydroxyapatite Nanocrystals

Hydroxyapatite (HA), a typical inorganic component of bone, is a widely utilized biomaterial for bone tissue repair and regeneration due to its excellent properties. Inspired by the recent findings on the important roles of protein in biomineralization and natural structure of fish scales, keratin was chosen as a template for modulating the assembly of HA nanocrystals. A series of HA nanocrystals with different sizes were synthesized by adjusting the concentration of partially hydrolyzed keratin. The structure and compositions of the prepared HA were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum, and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results revealed that the size of the synthesized HA nanocrystals can be controlled by adjusting the concentration of partially hydrolyzed keratin. Specifically, the size of synthesized HA decreased from 63 ± 1.5 nm to 27 ± 0.9 nm with the increasing concentration of partially hydrolyzed keratin from 0 to 0.6g. In addition, in vitro cytocompatibility of synthesized HA nanocrystals were evaluated using the MG-63 cells.

In this paper the hydroxyapatite fibers reinforced chitosan nanocomposites with high hydroxyapatite dosage (70~90 wt%) were synthesized by in-situ hybridization. The semi-permeable membrane was used to control the process of hybridization and morphology of hydroxyapatite. The compositional and morphological properties of nanocomposites were investigated by FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that the hydroxyapatite were carbonated nanometer crystalline fibers with high aspect ratio (about 25) and dispersed uniformly in the nanocomposites. The high-resolution image indicated that the growth of nano-hydroxyapatite crystallites in the chitosan matrix preferred in the c-axis. The mechanical properties of these nanocomposites were enhanced dramatically and the compressive strength increases almost to 170MPa when the hydroxyapatite content is 70 wt%. The in vitro tests indicated that the composites have high bioactivity and degradation. These properties illustrated the potential application of this kind of nanocomposites for bone tissue engineering.

Along decades, bioceramics have been used as materials for bone reconstruction, where hydroxyapatite is one of the most used bioceramics. But hydroxyapatite mechanical strength is not so high when compared with another bioceramics. This research aimed to characterize hydroxyapatite-titanium oxide scaffolds with different compositions. Samples were made using a polyurethane sponge with compositions of 70%-30% wt., 60%-40% wt. and 50%-50% wt. of hydroxyapatite-titanium oxide, calcined at 550°C for burning the polymeric sponge and sintered at 1250°C, 1300°C and 1350°C. Samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Results showed that all compositions maintained the polymeric sponge pores structure without any residual traces of the polymeric sponge. Those results are in accordance with technical literature and it is indicated to do in vitro essays to study the scaffolds biocompatibility for using as bone reconstruction materials.
