Abstract Active alginate-based coatings with quercetin glycoside and complexes of hydroxyapatite/quercetin-glycoside were used to study the shelf life fresh cut papaya stored at 6 °C. Hydroxyapatite was as a carrier for release bioactive compound. The parameters considered affecting quality fruit during storage weight loss, color, texture, sugars volatile compounds. hydroxyapatite proved higher...

A nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HA) feedstock was thermally sprayed on Ti–6Al–4V substrates via high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF process). The particle temperature and velocity for the HA particles in the HVOF jet were monitored during spraying and found to be 1826± 346 ◦C and 638± 82 m/s, respectively. The bioactivity of the coating was investigated in a simulated physiological environment, as an...

We report here the successful fabrication of nano-whisker hydroxyapatite (nHA) coatings on Mg alloy by using a simple one-step hydrothermal process in aqueous solution. The nHA coating shows uniform structure and high crystallinity. Results indicate that nHA coating is promising for improving the in vitro corrosion and cytocompatibility properties of Mg-based implants and devices for bone tissu...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of tooth coating material and finishing agent on bleached enamel surfaces after using KTP laser with 27% hydrogen peroxide. BACKGROUND DATA There have been few reports on the effects of tooth coating materials and finishing agents after bleaching. METHODS After 40 crowns of human extracted maxillary incisors were bleached by KTP...

The morphogenesis of bone in a porous hydroxyapatite substratum was studied after intramuscular implantation in adult primates. Replicas of porous hydroxyapatite that had been obtained after hydrothermal conversion of the calcium carbonate exoskeleton of coral (genus Goniopora) were implanted intramuscularly in twenty-four adult male baboons (Papio ursinus). Serial sections from specimens that ...

the aim of this work was to investigate the effect of silica coating on bioactivity and biodegradability of hydroxyapatite. in this purpose, we firstly attempted to synthesis hydroxyapatite (ha) nanoparticles and its silica coated (si-ha) sample in collagen matrix using calcium chloride, sodium phosphate and sodium silicate. characterization of the sample was carried out using fourier transform...

Novel Ca-Si-Ti-based sphene (CaTiSiO5) ceramics possess excellent chemical stability and cytocompatibility. The aim of this study was to prepare sphene coating on titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for orthopaedic applications using the plasma spray method. The phase composition, surface and interface microstructure, coating thickness, surface roughness and bonding strength of the plasma-sprayed sphene...
