In vitro Bioactivity of PMMA-Based Composite in Simulated Plasma with Albumin

چکیده
A new composite of poly(methyl methacrylate) – co -(ethyl-hexyl-acrylate) filled with glass of composition (wt.%) 61,33% 3CaO.P2O5 23,03% SiO2 – 15,64% MgO was developed. The formation of CaP (calcium phosphate) layers on implants is crucial for their integration in bone. Simulated biological fluids to study in vitro formation of those layers do not usually contain important organic substances, such as proteins. In the present work in vitro bioactivity was studied in a simulated body fluid in presence (SBFA) and in absence of albumin (SBF). The effect of protein on calcium phosphate formation was followed by ion concentration analyses (ICP), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy coupled with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The results showed the precipitation of a CaP layer on the composite in SBFA. Further crystallization of this layer, initially amorphous, seems to be hindered by the presence of albumin.

Among bioactive ceramics, the apatite/wollastonite (A/W) glass ceramic, containing apatite and wollastonite crystals in the glassy matrix, has been largely studied because of good bioactivity and used in some fields of medicine, especially in orthopedics and dentistry. However, medical applications of bioceramic are limited to non-load bearing applications because of their poor mechanical prope...

Nowadays, titanium-based alloys are among the most attractive metallic materials for biomedical applications (as implants) due to their non-biodegradability, low density, good mechanical properties as well as their good biocompatibility. Hydroxyapatite (Ca10 (PO4)6(OH)2, HA) has been widely used for biomedical applications due to its bioactive, biocompatible and osteoconductive properties. Firs...

Background: Cancer immunotherapy is a promising strategy for cancer treatment. In this strategy, the immune system is triggered to destroy cancer cells. IL-2 is an important factor in passive cancer immunotherapy that helps modulating some important immune functions. One of the IL-2 limitations is low serum half-life; therefore, repetitive high doses of the injections are required t...

In previous study, dense and homogenous 20wt% HAP/Ti composite coatings were successfully deposited on Ti substrates by cold gas dynamic spray technique. The results revealed that the phase composition of the HAP in the deposit is identical to that of the precursor powder and the bonding strength of the deposit is comparable/better to that of the plasma sprayed HAP. A relatively higher corrosio...
