Variation of bone forming ability with the physicochemical properties of calcium phosphate bone substitutes
Six commercially available CaP bone substitutes (Bio-Oss, Actifuse, Bi-Ostetic, MBCP, Vitoss and chronOs) as well as two tricalcium phosphate (TCP) ceramics with either a micron-scale (TCP-B) or submicronscale (TCP-S) surface structure are characterized and their bone forming potential is evaluated in a canine ectopic implantation model. It has been demonstrated that the specific topography and ...

Do You Really Know Hydroxyapatite?
As an important branch of biomedical materials, bioceramics are mainly used to manufacture hard tissue repair devices and artificial organs in vivo, and generally have good biocompatibility. According to the chemical activity in the physiological environment, bioceramics can be divided into three types: Nearly inert bioceramics, only weak or no chemical reaction occurs when exposed to the ...
