Synthesis And Characterization Of Nanocrystalline Hydroxyapatite Powder; And The Effects Of Oxide-based Sintering Additives On Tricalcium Phosphate
Calcium phosphate (CP) materials have been used extensively for bone replacement and augmentation due to their similarity to the mineral component of bone. In addition to being non-toxic, they are biocompatible, not recognized as foreign materials in vivo, and most importantly, exhibit …

Preosteoblast Behavior on a Synthetic Calcium Phosphate Scaffold Coated with Cell Derived Matrix
… and allografts currently used. Calcium phosphate (CaP) materials offer high biocompatibility and chemical similarity to natural bone tissue. Biodegradable beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds with an interconnected porous network have been created to promote tissue ingrowth and …

Engineered [beta]TCP-binding HER-family protein fusions and their use for improving osteoprogenitor- mediated bone regeneration
… EGF onto a graftable, osteoconductive matrix, beta-tricalcium phosphate ([beta]TCP). Due to the lack functional groups for bioconjugation on the [beta]TCP surface, the tethering strategy involved the use of a high-affinity [beta]TCP binding peptide fused to the EGF domain. This …

In vitro osteoclast resorption of calcium phosphate bone substitutes
… in vitro osteoclast (OC) resorption of calcium phosphate (CaP) biomaterials. Resorption of CaP biomaterials is traditionally assessed using an OC resorption assay where resorption pits formed on the CaP surface are analysed by microscopy techniques and quantified on the basis of pit number, pit …

Driving tissue morphogenetic cascades using tunable nanolayered surface coatings
… controlled by a hydrolytically degradable poly([beta]-amino ester), was essential for tissue regeneration and, in the presence of HAP, the modular coating encouraged the direct deposition of highly cohesive trabecular bone on the implant surface with an interfacial tensile strength that was 2-3 …
