Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) was prepared by a simple precipitation method using avian eggshell waste as a low-cost alternative calcium precursor source. The synthesized CPP powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results indicate that pure b-CPP nanocrys...

Introduction: Bioceramic sealers have been gaining prominence in endodontics, meaning a great advance for endodontic therapy, mainly due to their biocompatibility and bioactivity. Objectives: research discuss the literature about bioactivity of bioceramic sealants. Materials methods: An integrative review was performed. The systematic plan consisted four steps. In first stage, bibliographic sur...

Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) was applied to the analysis of bioceramic samples. The relationship between sample hardness and LIBS plasma properties was investigated, with comparison to conventional Vickers hardness measurements. The plasma excitation temperature Te was determined using the lineto-continuum ratio for the Si (I) 288.16 nm emission line; we have demonstrated a linea...

Silicates are well known for their bioactivity, here we are reporting the bioactivity of diopside (CaMgSi2O6) synthesized by sol-gel combustion process by using citric acid and succinic acid as a mixed fuel. The phase formation of the prepared sample was confirmed by powder X-Ray Diffraction. In-vitro bioactivity of the diopside in conjugation with biopolymer chitin in various proportions were ...

The mechanisms of acupuncture remain poorly understood, but it is generally assumed that measuring the electrical conductivity at various meridians provides data representing various meridian energies. In the past, noninvasive methods have been used to stimulate the acupuncture points at meridians, such as heat, electricity, magnets, and lasers. Photoluminescent bioceramic (PLB) material has be...

The osseointegration rate of implants is related to their composition and surface roughness. Implant roughness favors both bone anchoring and biomechanical stability. Osteoconductive calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coatings promote bone healing and apposition, leading to the rapid biological fixation of implants. It has been clearly shown in many publications that Ca-P coating accelerates bone formati...
