Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been widely used in fields of materials science, tissue engineering, biomedicine, energy and environmental science, and analytical science due to its simple preparation, low-cost, and high biocompatibility. To overcome the weak mechanical properties of pure HA, various reinforcing materials were incorporated with HA to form ...
3%. Conclusions: The study findings support that HA porous scaffolds produced by sponge replica were effective for the treatment of maxillary bone defects in humans.
-helix structures, due to the greater than 2-times carboxyl group density at their surfaces. It can be expected that self-assembled peptide-templated HAp may be used as carriers for protein immobilization in biosensing and bioseparation applications and as enzyme-stabilizing agents.
External surfaces of stones used in historic buildings often carry high artistic value and need to be preserved from the damages of time, especially from the detrimental effects of the weathering. This study aimed to test the effectiveness and compatibility of some new environmentally-friendly materials for stone consolidation, as the use thereof h...
m. The formation of a ceramic layer under controlled electrochemical parameters allows the design of a bioactive surface of implants for bone tissue. The hydroxyapatite particles may promote the osseointegration process. Thus, in this study, the formation of ceramic composites on medical-grade Ti surfaces is presented and discussed.
-potential analysis were confirmed for the first time by a non-destructive ultrasound-based technique. Structural and morphological studies of synthesized 10MgHAp were conducted by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in attenuated total reflectance (ATR) mode and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The XRD analys...
hyaluronate (Gel-HA) copolymer mixed with calcium sulfate (CS), hydroxyapatite (HAP), and SDF-1 in order to enhance bone regeneration in a bone defect model. The composites were tested in vitro for biocompatibility and their ability to recruit MSCs after material characterization. For the in vivo test, a rat femoral condyle bone defect model was us...
Abstract The transformation of the gypsum into hydroxyapatite allows added value to this raw material, because the ceramic obtained has a high commercial value in relation to gypsum, while the polymer adds biocompatibility and bioactivity properties to the biocomposite. Thus, hydroxyapatite/polyhydroxybutyrate composites were prepared from the gyps...
The bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of mechanical properties of bone cement during accelerated degradation. The theoretical part describes the internal structure of bone, the use of bone substitutes, the materials used for bone tissue replacement. The experiment was a pressure test of porous materials used to replace bone tissue. The test w...
Calcium phosphate, due to its similarity to the inorganic fraction of mineralized tissues, has played a key role in many areas of medicine, in particular, regenerative medicine and orthopedics. It has also found application in conservative dentistry and dental surgery, in particular, as components of toothpaste and mouth rinse, coatings of dental i...
