α-Tricalcium phosphate: Synthesis, properties and biomedical applications
TLDR
It is as biocompatible as β-TCP, but more soluble, and hydrolyses rapidly to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite, which makes α- TCP a useful component for preparing self-setting osteotransductive bone cements and biodegradable bioceramics and composites for bone repairing.About:

Luminescence properties and color identification of Eu doped Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 phosphors calcined in air
TL;DR: In this article, the luminescence properties of the two different phases of TCP were discussed according to the luminecence spectra during the heating and cooling transition, and the results of this study suggested that Eu ion could be used as a spectroscopic probe to qualitatively identify the crystalline phase of TCP by a simple and convenient way to observe the color-tunable emission of the samples when irradiating it under 365nm UV lamp.

Juan Parra,Juan Parra,Ismael H. García Páez,Antonio H. De Aza,Carmen Baudín,M. Rocío Martín,Pilar Pena +6 more
TL;DR: The results of the MTT and Alamar Blue assays showed that the soluble components extracted from the Mg/Si- co-substituted Ca3 (PO4 )2 and the Ca3(PO4)2 -CaMg(SiO3 )2 composite were noncytotoxic.

Si-tricalcium phosphate cement: preparation, characterization and bioactivity in SBF
Mariana Motisuke,Mariana Motisuke,Raúl García Carrodeguas,Cecília Amélia de Carvalho Zavaglia +3 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of silicon doping on the properties of Α-TCP cement was analyzed, and the Si-Alpha-CTP was obtained by a solid state reaction employing CaCO3, CaHPO4 and CaSiO3 and powder was analyzed by XRD, FTIR, XRF and BET specific area.
