The role of the subchondral bone and the importance of treating both bone and cartilage in cases of chondral and osteochondral lesions of the knee have been highly emphasized. There are no current studies on the experimental use of bioactive glass S53P4 (BonAlive®) as granules in the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the knee. Our preliminary study was designed to establish an experimental ...

This research has been done to study characteristic and biocompatible evaluation of a nano-biocompositeceramic with the bioglass (BG) as a first phase. In this regard, synthesis of S53P4 (53% SiO2, 4% P2O5,23% Na2O and 20% CaO) bioglass has been considered as the first phase and flourapatite (FA) consideredas the second phase. Afterwards, nanocomposite with the base of S53P4 b...

In this paper, we investigate the effect of substituting SrO for CaO in silicate and phosphate bioactive glasses on the human gingival fibroblast activity. In both materials the presence of SrO led to the formation of a CaP layer with partial Sr substitution for Ca. The layer at the surface of the silicate glass consisted of HAP whereas at the phosphate glasses it was close to the DCPD composit...

Abstract Although the initial in vitro dissolution of bioactive glasses (BAG) is well characterized, long-term behaviour crystallized BAG scaffolds a continuous fluid flow incompletely understood. A detailed understanding vital for predicting their clinical applications. Here, we explored and reaction mechanisms partly crystalline glass–ceramic based on S53P4 45S5 using flow-through method Tris...
