The silicate-based bioactive glass S53P4 is clinically used in bone regenerative applications in granule form. However, utilization of the glass in scaffold form has been limited by the high tendency of the glass to crystallize during sintering. Here, careful optimization of sintering parameters enabled the manufacture of porous amorphous S53P4 scaffolds with a strength high enough for surgical procedures in bone applications (5 MPa). Sintering was conducted in a laboratory furnace for times ranging from 25 to 300 min at 630 °C, i.e., narrowly below the commencement of the crystallization. The phase composition of the scaffolds was verified with XRD, and the ion release was tested in vitro and compared with granules in continuous flow of Tris buffer and simulated body fluid (SBF). The amorphous, porous S53P4 scaffolds present the possibility of using the glass composition in a wider range of applications.

In this study, bioactive glass particles with controllable structure and porosity were prepared using dual-templating methods. Block copolymers used as one template component produced mesopores in the calcined samples. Polymer colloidal crystals as the other template component yielded either three-dimensionally ordered macroporous (3DOM) products or shaped bioactive glass nanoparticles. Thein vitrobioactivity of these bioactive glasses was studied by soaking the samples in simulated body fluid (SBF) at body temperature (37°C) for varying lengths of time and monitoring the formation of bone-like apatite on the surface of the bioactive glass. A considerable bioactivity was found that all of bioactive glass samples have the ability to induce the formation of an apatite layer on its surface when in contact with SBF. The development of bone-like apatite is faster for 3DOM bioactive glasses than for nanoparticles.

Development of novel biomaterials for bone regeneration is based on the sufficient bone-bonding ability, bioactivity and biocompatibility. In this study, novel flexible poly(butylene succinate)/polydimethysiloxane-modified bioactive glass/nano-hydroxyapatite (PBSu/PDMS-BG/nHA) hybrid bioceramic with various nHA concentration on the in vitro bone-like hydroxyapatite (HA) formation, biomineralization activity and osteoblast cell biocompatibility were investigated. The rapid precipitation of HA on the hybrid bioceramic surfaces was found after being immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF) for seven days. Results show that the amount of HA deposition increased with the increase of nHA concentration. The optimized PBSu/PDMS-BG/nHA hybrid bioceramic exhibited good flexibility, high biomineralization activity and good osteoblast cell biocompatibility.

A bioactive glass 46S6 with composition 46% SiO2 - 24% CaO - 24% Na2O - 6% P2O5 (wt%) was elaborated by melting method. ‘‘In vitro’’ bioactivity of bio-glass was evaluated by soaking of glass-powders in a simulated body fluid (SBF) at different times. The obtained results highlighted the bioactivity of the bio-glass by the formation of a bioactive hydroxyapatite (HA) layer on its surface. Experiments ''in vitro'' in the presence of cells confirmed the non-toxicity and the good cell viability on this bio-glass.

Titania ceramics is lack of bone-bonding ability even if it has excellent biocompatibility. Recently, it is even found that the nanophase titania ceramics could enhance the proliferation of osteoblasts. If the bone-bonding ability of this material is improved, it would be a potential bone replacement material. Bioactive glass-ceramic (BGC) is provided with the best bioactivity in biomaterials. In this study, the apatite formation ability and the mechanic properties of titania ceramic were investigated by the accession of BGC. Four samples: TiO2 ceramic, TiO2 +10%BGC, TiO2 +20%BGC and BGC were prepared respectively. These ceramics were exposed to a simulated body fluid (SBF) for 7, 14 and 21d. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray detector (EDX) and thin film X-ray diffraction (TF-XRD) results showed that the apatite formation of the ceramics was improved by adding BGC into nanophase titania ceramic. The mechanical analysis showed the biomechanical compatibility was also improved by adding BGC into nanophase titania ceramic.

In the study, three-dimensional, grid-like silicate-based bioactive glass scaffolds were manufactured using a robotic deposition technique. Inks were prepared by mixing 13-93 bioactive glass particles in Pluronic® F-127 solution. After deposition, scaffolds were dried at room temperature and sintered at 690°C for 1 h. The surface of the sintered scaffolds was coated with graphene nanopowder (1, 3, 5, 10 wt%) containing poly(ε-caprolactone) solution. The in vitro mineralization ability of the prepared composite scaffolds was investigated in simulated body fluid. The surface of the simulated body fluid-treated scaffolds was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy to investigate the hydroxyapatite formation. Mechanical properties were tested under compression. Results revealed that graphene coating has no detrimental effect on the hydroxyapatite forming ability of the prepared glass scaffolds. On the other hand, it decreased the compression strength of the scaffolds at high graphene concentrations. The prepared grid-like bioactive glass-based composite scaffolds did not show toxic response to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. It was shown that stem cells seeded onto the scaffolds attached and proliferated well on the surface. Cells seeded on the scaffolds surface also demonstrated osteogenic differentiation under in vitro conditions in the absence of transforming growth factors.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Na and Ti on thein vitrodegradation and bioactivity in the 58S bioactive glass. The degradation was evaluated through the activation energy of Si ion release from bioactive glasses and the weight loss of bioactive glasses in Tris-HCl buffer solution. Thein vitrobioactivity of the bioactive glasses was investigated by analysis of apatite-formation ability in the simulated body fluid (SBF). The results showed that Na in the 58S glass accelerated the dissolution rate of the glass, whereas Ti in the 58S glass slowed down the rate of glass solubility. Bioactivity tests showed that Na in glass increased the apatite-forming ability in SBF. In contrast, Ti in glass retards the apatite formation at the initial stage of SBF soaking but does not affect the growth of apatite after long periods of soaking.

In this study a new P-free system applied to the production of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles (BG-NPs) is proposed, in order to evaluate the effect of suppressing this component, in the bioactivity capability of the materials. The BG-NPs, based on both ternary (SiO2-CaO-P2O5) and binary (SiO2-CaO) systems, were prepared via a sol-gel method. The morphology and composition of the BG-NPs were studied using FTIR and SEM. New composite membranes were produced combining chitosan and the BG-NPs. The bioactive character of the prepared biodegradable membranes was accessed in vitro by analyzing the capability for apatite formation onto the surface after being immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). EDX and SEM were used to confirm the bioactivity of the materials.
