Composite Powders

Biphasic tricalcium phosphate (BTCP) powders composed of α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) were prepared using amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) precursor after heat treatment at 800oC. The in vitro dissolution behavior of the powders was examined after soaked in 0.1M NaAc-HAc buffer solution for different times. It was revealed that the Ca2+ and PO4 3- concentration, and pH value of the BTCP-soaked solution are higher than those of the α-TCP- and β-TCP-soaked solutions. The dissolution behavior of BTCP powders was explained. The specific dissolution behavior of BTCP powders can widen the biodegradation range of calcium phosphate family.

Bioactive glass-ceramics of the SiO2-CaO-P2O5-MgO system were fabricated by sol-gel-self propagating method. Two Gel-derived materials discs， 5S and 3S， were prepared by compression of powders. The materials obtained were examined in vitro with regard to the dissolution behavior and the formation ability of calcium phosphate layer on the surfaces of samples in simulated body fluid (SBF). Concentration of ions and pH value in SBF were determined by ICP-AES and micro acidity meter after 3S and 5S were immerged in SBF for intervals from 6h to 15 days and the surface characteristic of 3S and 5S soaked were determined by SEM. Experiment results showed that the formation ability of calcium phosphate on the surface of gel-derived materials depended on the speed of dissolution of samples, which related to original chemical composition and size of crystal on the surface of materials. With decreasing of Si content and increasing of Ca content, smaller crystal could be formed on the surface of 3S, which tended to dissolve more quickly in SBF. Solubility product of calcium phosphate can be reached more easily in the solution with high concentration of Ca and P and bone-like carbonate apatite formed easily on the surface of 3S.

α-Tricalcium phosphate is an important ingredient of calcium phosphate bone cements, which are used for bone defect augmentation and repair. In this study sub-micrometre sized α­tricalcium phosphate particles were synthesized by heat treating amorphous calcium phosphate. Size of synthesized particles depended on duration and temperature of heat treatment. Longer duration and higher temperatures produced larger particles. The reactivity of synthesized particles did not correlate with particle size – the smallest particles did not have the highest reactivity. The most reactive particles were prepared at 700-800 °C. The prepared particles were more reactive than those of conventionally synthesized α-tricalcium phosphate.

Plasma Sprayed

Hydroxyapatite (HA) coated total hip joint device has caused concerns of generating wear particles after long-term implantation. We designed a pin-on-disk (POD) test to examine the morphological changes and wear particle generation of plasma sprayed HA coating in vitro. HA coatings were immersed in supplemented α-calf bovine serum for 48 hours. Serum soaked HA coating exhibited significant amount of weight loss due to dissolution of amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). POD test demonstrated the serum soaked HA coatings presented many micronsized particles on the surface while the as-received HA coatings maintained good integrity. The generation of wear particles of the serum soaked HA coatings is related to the reduction of the cohesion/adhesion of HA coatings due to the preferential dissolution of ACP.

Custom Made

The degradation rate of custom made calcium phosphate scaffolds, designed for bone tissue engineering applications, influences the healing process of critical size bone defects. An optimal degradation rate exists at which the neo-formed bone replaces the CaP (calcium phosphate) scaffold [1]. Consequently investigating the complex degradation behavior (dissolution, reprecipitation, osteoclast activity) of custom made CaP structures gains interest. In this work different in vitro dissolution experiments were performed to study the degradation behavior of 4 by composition different calcium phosphates. Ideally these experiments should have a predictive power regarding the in vivo degradation behavior. In vitro dissolution tests still lack standardization. Therefore this study focuses on the influence of two dissolution constraints: (i) the material’s macrostructure (porous - dense), (ii) the regenerated fluid flow (bath shaking - perfusion). From 4 different CaP compositions porous structures and as a reference dense disks were produced, using the same starting powder and heat treatment. To compare the different dissolution tests, all data was normalized to the CaP surface area. Results show that besides the structural appearances of the CaP structures, also the design of the dissolution test influences the in vitro dissolution behavior. Moreover there is a need to take the morphology of the dissolved material into account. The CaP perfusion tests show dissolution dynamics that resemble the in vivo reality more closely than the shaking bath experiments.

Skin Retention

Background: In this study, a liposomal gel based on a pH-gradient method was used to increase the skin-layer retention of monocrotaline (MCT) for topical administration. Methods: Using the Box-Behnken design, different formulations were designed to form liposome suspensions with optimal encapsulation efficiency (EE%) and stability factor (KE). In order to keep MCT in liposomes and accumulate in skin slowly and selectively, MCT liposome suspensions were engineered into gels. Results: A pH-gradient method was used to prepare liposome suspensions. The optimal formulation of liposome suspensions (encapsulation efficiency: 83.10 ± 0.21%) was as follows: MCT 12 mg, soybean phosphatidyl choline (sbPC) 200 mg, cholesterol (CH) 41 mg, vitamin E (VE) 5 mg, and citric acid buffer solution (CBS) 4.0 10 mL (pH 7.0). The final formulation of liposomal gels consisted of 32 mL liposome suspensions, 4.76 mL deionized water, 0.40 g Carbopol-940, 1.6 g glycerol, 0.04 g methylparaben, and a suitable amount of triethanolamine for pH value adjustment. The results of in vitro drug release showed that MCT in liposomal gels could be released in 12 h constantly in physiological saline as a Ritger-Peppas model. Compared with plain MCT in gel form, liposomal MCT in gel had higher skin retention in vitro. Conclusion: In this study, liposomal gels were formed for greater skin retention of MCT. It is potentially beneficial for reducing toxicities of MCT by topical administration with liposomal gel.
