In Vitro Evaluation of Nanoscale Hydroxyapatite-Based Bone Reconstructive Materials with Antimicrobial Properties
(American Scientific Publishers, 2016)
In the field of oral implantology the loss of bone tissue prevents adequate patient care, and calls for the use of synthetic biomaterials with properties that resemble natural bone. Special attention is paid to the risk ...
Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)/hydroxyapatite core-shell nanospheres. Part 1: A multifunctional system for controlled drug delivery
(Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2011)
Biodegradable poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and bioactive hydroxyapatite (HAP) are selected for the formation of a multifunctional system with the specific core-shell structure to be applied as a carrier of a drug. ...
Synthesis and Characterization of Hydroxyapatite/Fullerenol Nanocomposites
(Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2015)
Fullerenols are polyhydroxylated, water soluble derivatives of fullerene C60, with potential application in medicine as diagnostic agents, antioxidants or nano drug carriers. This paper describes synthesis and physical ...
Nanosized hydroxyapatite and other calcium phosphates: Chemistry of formation and application as drug and gene delivery agents
(Hoboken, NJ : John Wiley & Sons, 2011)
The first part of this review looks at the fundamental properties of hydroxyapatite (HAP), the basic mineral constituent of mammalian hard tissues, including the physicochemical features that govern its formation by ...
Nanosized hydroxyapatite and other calcium phosphates: Chemistry of formation and application as drug and gene delivery agents
(Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2011)
The first part of this review looks at the fundamental properties of hydroxyapatite (HAP), the basic mineral constituent of mammalian hard tissues, including the physicochemical features that govern its formation by ...
Chitosan oligosaccharide lactate coated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles as a vehicle for the delivery of steroid drugs and the targeting of breast cancer cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Low targeting efficiency and fast metabolism of antineoplastic drugs are hindrances to effective chemotherapies and there is an ongoing search for better drugs, but also better carriers. Steroid derivatives, 3β-hydroxy-1 ...
Hydroxyapatite as a root canal system filling material: Cytotoxicity testing
(Durnten-Zurich : Trans Tech Publications Ltd., 2004)
Cytotoxicity testing, as a standard assay for toxicity of dental materials, is useful for initial biocompatibility evaluations. In vitro test of calcium hydroxyapatite (CHA) with established laboratory cell line showed ...
Influence of ultrasonic processing on the macromolecular properties of poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) alone and in its biocomposite with hydroxyapatite
(Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2010)
In this work poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and a poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)/hydroxyapatite (PLGA/HAp) composite processed in an ultrasonic field at higher (25 degrees C) and lower (8 degrees C) temperatures ...
Study of Nanosized Hydroxyapatite Material Annealing at Different Retention Times
(Belgrade : ETRAN, 2020)
The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of low heating temperatures with two different retention times to optimize the process for obtaining nanosized hydroxyapatite material that can possibly be used in the ...
Predictive modeling of the mechanical properties of particulate hydroxyapatite reinforced polymer composites
(Wiley, 2002)
The influence of particle geometry and volume fraction on the mechanical properties of a hydroxyapatite (HAp) particulate reinforced polymer (poly-L-lactide and collagen) matrix composite was investigated through finite-element ...
