Understanding the Biocompatibility of Sintered Calcium Phosphate with Ratio of [Ca][P] = 1.50

الملخص EN

Biocompatibility of sintered calcium phosphate pellets with [Ca]/[P] = 1.50 was determined in this study.

Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) phase formed on the sintered pellets immersed in a normal saline solution for 14 d at 37∘C.

The intensities of hydroxyapatite (HA) reflections in the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the pellets were retrieved to as-sintered state.

The pellet surface morphology shows that CPP crystallites were clearly present and make an amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) to discriminate against become to the area of slice join together.

In addition, the intensities of the CPP reflections in the XRD patterns were the highest when the pellets were immersed for 28 d.

When the CPP powders were extracted from the pellets after immersion in the solution for 14 d, the viability of 3T3 cells remained above 90% for culture times from 1 to 4 d.

The pellet surface morphology observed using optical microscopy showed that the cells did not adhere to the bottom of the sintered pellets when cultured for 4 d; however, some CPP phase precipitates were formed, as confirmed by XRD.

In consequence, the results suggest that the sintered HA powders are good materials for use in biomedical applications because of their good biocompatibility.
