Electrocrystallization of Calcium Phosphates
The interest in electrocrystallization of calcium phosphates (CaP) in general, and of hydroxyapatite (HAp) specifically, results from the promising industrial benefits, unique microstructures, and properties of the deposits produced by this process, and the possible similarity to bone mineralization in vivo. In this paper, our work on electrocrystallization of HAp and octacalcium phosphate (OCP...
متن کاملSolubility of calcium phosphates.
Solubil ity is one of the most important properties of calcium phosphate salts. It is the solubil ity that determines the direction of many reactions that involve calcium phosphates such as dissolution, precipitation, hydrolysis, and phase transformation. Calcium phosphate solubil ity also plays a maior role in biological processes that involve formation and resorption ol' hard tissues as well ...
متن کاملBiological and medical significance of calcium phosphates.
The inorganic part of hard tissues (bones and teeth) of mammals consists of calcium phosphate, mainly of apatitic structure. Similarly, most undesired calcifications (i.e. those appearing as a result of various diseases) of mammals also contain calcium phosphate. For example, atherosclerosis results in blood-vessel blockage caused by a solid composite of cholesterol with calcium phosphate. Dent...
متن کاملIonic Substitutions in Non-Apatitic Calcium Phosphates
Calcium phosphate materials (CaPs) are similar to inorganic part of human mineralized tissues (i.e., bone, enamel, and dentin). Owing to their high biocompatibility, CaPs, mainly hydroxyapatite (HA), have been investigated for their use in various medical applications. One of the most widely used ways to improve the biological and physicochemical properties of HA is ionic substitution with trac...
متن کاملCalcium Phosphates as Delivery Systems for Bisphosphonates
Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the most utilized drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis, and are usefully employed also for other pathologies characterized by abnormally high bone resorption, including bone metastases. Due to the great affinity of these drugs for calcium ions, calcium phosphates are ideal delivery systems for local administration of BPs to bone, which is aimed to avoid/limit the un...
