Hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA), which formed on a poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composite membrane containing vaterite or calcium chloride after soaking in simulated body fluid, was examined to clarify the importance of the ceramic phases in the composites. FT-IR spectra showed that the ratio of CO3/PO4 in the infrared adsorption bands of HCA formed on the PLA composite containing vaterite was much larger than that of HCA formed on the PLA composite containing calcium chloride. Substitution of carbonate ion in hydroxyapatite is believed to be strongly influenced by ceramic phases in the composites. The zeta potentials of HCA formed on the PLA composite containing vaterite or calcium chloride was -6 mV or -17 mV, respectively. The zeta potential may be influenced by the amount of carbonate ion in hydroxyapatite.

Microfiber meshes releasing a trace amount of silicon species were prepared by electrospinning silicon-doped vaterite (SiV) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) hybrids for application to membranes for guided bone regeneration (GBR). A trace amount of silicon-species has been reported to enhance the mineralization and bone-forming abilities of osteogenic cells. The microfiber meshes prepared by electrospinning are regarded to be a useful candidate for the GBR membrane, because they have adequate flexibility and porosity for it. In this study, hydroxyapatite (HA)-forming abilities in simulated body fluid, silicon-releasabilities, compatibility with osteoblast-like cells of the prepared microfiber meshes were examined. The meshes were completely coated with HA after soaking in simulated body fluid for 1 day. The meshes coated with HA released 0.2 -0.7 mg/L of silicon species in a cell culture medium for 7 days. The cells elongated on the microfibers of the meshes and some of them entered the mesh after 1 day-culturing. The meshes are expected to provide an excellent substrate for bone regeneration and enhance bone-forming ability of the cells.

Apatite nuclei were synthesized by raising pH of simulated body fluid (SBF). Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) microspheres were soaked in apatite nuclei suspension, and then apatite nuclei were attached to surfaces of the PLA microspheres. When these PLA microspheres were soaked in SBF, apatite nuclei on the PLA microspheres induced HAp. As a result, PLA microspheres coated with HAp were fabricated. The HAp-coated PLA microspheres were soaked in acetone. The PLA core was dissolved out, and then consequently hollow microcapsules constructed of HAp were fabricated. As HAp microcapsules have properties of bioaffinity and non-toxicity, they were expected to be applicable to an excellent carrier of drug delivery system.
