In vitro bioactivity study of composite scaffold prepared via thermally induced phase separation

Among porous materials suitable for Bone Tissue Engineering (BTE) scaffolds, bioactive ceramics (hydroxyapatite, HA) and bioactive glasses (BG) have been used for their excellent biocompatibility, bioactivity and efficient osteointegration (1). However, their major limitations are brittleness, low mechanical stability and low dissolution rate (2). Recent evidences suggest that composite scaffold based on biodegradable polymers (e.g. Poly-lacticacid (PLLA)) simultaneously loaded with HA and BG hold promising potential as efficient osteoconductive implants (3, 4). In this work we investigated the possibility to produce composite PLLA-HA-BG scaffolds via Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIP…

BIOGLASS® integration in Poly-L-Lactic-Acid scaffolds produced via Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS).

In this work, a method of integration of BG particles in polymeric scaffold was developed with a trial and error procedure. The main purpose was to obtain highly porous and mechanically stable bioactive devices.

The effect of dentine pre-treatment using bioglass and/or polyacrylic acid on the interfacial characteristics of resin-modified glass ionomer cements.

2018

Objective To evaluate the effect of load-cycle aging and/or 6 months artificial saliva (AS) storage on bond durability and interfacial ultramorphology of resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) applied to dentine air-abraded using Bioglass 45S5 (BAG) with/without polyacrylic acid (PAA) conditioning.Methods RMGIC (Ionolux, VOCO) was applied onto human dentine specimens prepared with silicon-carbide abrasive paper or air-abraded with BAG with or without the use of PAA conditioning. Half of bonded-teeth were submitted to load cycling (150,000 cycles) and half immersed in deionised water for 24 h. They were cut into matchsticks and submitted immediately to microtensile bond strength (μTBS) …

Galvanic Deposition of Calcium Phosphate/Bioglass Composite Coating on AISI 316L

2023

Calcium phosphate/Bioglass composite coatings on AISI 316L were investigated with regard to their potential role as a beneficial coating for orthopedic implants. These coatings were realized by the galvanic co-deposition of calcium phosphate compounds and Bioglass particles. A different amount of Bioglass 45S5 was used to study its effect on the performance of the composite coatings. The morphology and chemical composition of the coatings were investigated before and after their aging in simulated body fluid. The coatings uniformly covered the AISI 316L substrate and consisted of a brushite and hydroxyapatite mixture. Both phases were detected using X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy.…

Evaluación “in vitro” del comportamiento en dentina afectada por caries de un adhesivo bioactivo/biomimético experimental frente a diversos sistemas …

2020

Debido a la gran cantidad de procedimientos adhesivos que realizamos en la clínica diaria sobre dentina afectada por caries (DAC),necesitamos perfeccionar las estrategias adhesivas, no sólo de cara a mantener la capa híbrida en buen estado sino para intentar modificarla o al menos "defenderla" de una más que probable futura filtración lateral, favoreciendo la remineralización biomimética (de dentro-afuera) o precipitación mineral a través de materiales bioactivos que reaccionen en presencia de agua. OBJETIVOS. 1. Evaluar la estabilidad adhesiva en el tiempo de un adhesivo experimental (EXP) frente a otros sistemas comerciales. El material EXP contenía bioglass dopado con fluoruro junto a pr…
