Theoretical analysis of calcium phosphate precipitation in simulated body fluid
TLDR
The analysis indicates that the nucleation rate of OCP is substantially higher than that of HA, while HA is most thermodynamically stable in SBF, while DCPD precipitation is the most likely because of its highest nucleation rates among Ca-P phases.About:

Can bioactivity be tested in vitro with SBF solution
Marc Bohner,Jacques Lemaître +1 more
TL;DR: There is presently not enough scientific data to support the assumption that a simulated body solution (SBF) can be used to test the bioactivity of a material, and the way the test is generally conducted leaves room for improvement.

Calcium phosphate coatings on magnesium alloys for biomedical applications: a review.
Shaylin Shadanbaz,George J. Dias +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of the different calcium phosphate phases, their properties and their behaviour in vitro and in vivo has been provided, followed by the current coating techniques used for calcium phosphates that may be or may have been adapted for magnesium substrates.

Nanosized hydroxyapatite and other calcium phosphates: chemistry of formation and application as drug and gene delivery agents.
Vuk Uskoković,Dragan Uskoković +1 more
TL;DR: Calcium phosphate nanoparticles as carriers of therapeutic agents that would enable a controlled drug release to treat a given bone infection and at the same be resorbed in the body so as to regenerate hard tissue lost to disease are emphasized as one of the potentially attractive smart materials for the modern medicine.

Kinetics and mechanisms of the conversion of silicate (45S5), borate, and borosilicate glasses to hydroxyapatite in dilute phosphate solutions.
TL;DR: The kinetics and mechanisms of the conversion process of the four glasses to HA are compared and used to develop a model for the process, which shows a more rapid conversion of the glass to HA and a lower pH value of the phosphate solution.

Solutions able to reproduce in vivo surface-structure changes in bioactive glass-ceramic A-W.
TL;DR: The results support the concept that the apatite phase on the surface of glass-ceramic A-W is formed by a chemical reaction of the glass- Aceramic with the Ca2+, HPO4(2-), and OH- ions in the body fluid.

Structure and chemistry of the apatites and other calcium orthophosphates
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the structure of carbonate apatites and the properties of apatite powders, including their properties in terms of their nucleation and crystal growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel bioactive materials with different mechanical properties.
TL;DR: The biomimetic process has been used to deposit nano-sized bone- like apatite on fine polymer fibers, which were textured into a three-dimensional knit framework, which is expected to ultimately lead to bioactive composites that have a bone-like structure and, hence,Bone-like mechanical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and assessment of revised simulated body fluids
TL;DR: The results indicate that the r-SBf and i-SBF are less stable than the c- SBF and m-SBFs in terms of changes in ion concentrations relative to storage period.
