چکیده
Implants were placed in the femurs of miniature pigs. After 3 and 6 weeks respectively, the implants were removed and analyzed. Signifi cant differences were noted in the percentage of B.I.C. (Bone Implant Contact). Polished, sandblasted with fi ne grit, or acid etched implant surfaces had the lowest percentage of B.I.C. (B.I.C. < 25%). Grit-blasted (coarse grit) or T.P.S. (Titanium Plasma Sprayed) implant surfaces demonstrated mean bone-implant contact (B.I.C. = 30 and 40%). Grit-blasted (coarse grit) and acid attacked implant surfaces, as well as HA (HydroxyApatite) coated implants had excellent results (B.I.C. = 60 and 70%). It can be concluded that surface roughness is positively correlated with osseointegration.

Expression of interleukin-4 receptors on early human B-lineage cells.
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) regulates multiple stages of the antigen-dependent phase of B-cell development. However, its precise role in regulating B lymphopoiesis in bone marrow is not as well defined. We examined whether surface IgM- normal and leukemic human B-cell precursors (BCP) expressed IL-4 receptors using biotinylated IL-4. Constitutive expression of IL-4 receptors was detected on both norma...
متن کاملGuided self-assembly of diblock copolymer thin films on chemically patterned substrates.
We study the guided self-assembly of symmetric/asymmetric diblock copolymer (BCP) films on heterogeneous substrates with chemically patterned surface by using a coarse-grained phase-separation model. During the procedure, the free energy employed for the BCP films was modeled by the Ginzburg-Landau free energy with nonlocal interaction, and the flat, chemically patterned surface was considered ...
متن کاملStudy of Ac/rf Properties of Srf Ingot Niobium
In an attempt to correlate the performance of superconducting radiofrequency cavities made of niobium with the superconducting properties, we present the results of the magnetization and ac susceptibility of the niobium used in the superconducting radiofrequency cavity fabrication. The samples were subjected to buffer chemical polishing (BCP) surface and high temperature heat treatments, typica...
متن کاملThe association of hydrogel and biphasic calcium phosphate in the treatment of dehiscence-type peri-implant defects: an experimental study in dogs.
Hydrogel polymers have many applications in regenerative medicine. The aim of this study in dogs was to investigate bone regeneration in dehiscence-type peri-implant defects created surgically and treated with (i) biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) granules alone; (ii) a composite putty hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)/BCP (MBCP/putty); and (iii) a polymer crosslinked membrane of silanized-HP...
متن کاملSurface morphology diagram for cylinder-forming block copolymer thin films.
We investigate the effect of the ordering temperature (T) and film thickness (h(f)) on the surface morphology of flow-coated block copolymer (BCP) films of asymmetric poly(styrene-block-methyl methacrylate). Morphology transitions observed on the ordered film surface by atomic force microscopy (AFM) are associated with a perpendicular to a parallel cylinder BCP microphase orientation transition...
متن کاملLamellar Diblock Copolymers on Rough Substrates: Self-Consistent Field Theory Studies
We present numerical calculations of lamellar phases of diblock copolymers (BCP) confined between two surfaces, where the top surface is flat and the bottom one is corrugated. The corrugated substrate is assumed to have a single q-mode of lateral undulations with a wavenumber qs and amplitude R. We focus on the effects of substrate roughness, parametrized by the dimensionless quantity, qsR, on ...
