Item Properties of strontium-containing BG 58S produced by alkali-mediated sol-gel process(Elsevier) Oliveira, Ivone Regina de; Barbosa, Ana Maria; Santos, Kennedy Wallace dos; Lança, Maria Carmo; Lima, Maria Margarida Rolim Augusto; Vieira, Tânia; Silva, Jorge Carvalho; Borges, João PauloAmong many bioglass (BG) compositions, gel-BG 58S has been indicated in the literature for applications as bone graft due to its promising use to repair bone defects. However, its physical and biological properties also depend of choice of precursors. The use of phosphoric acid as a source of P2O5 changes the thermal behavior of BG and in the presence of HNO3 increases the rate of hydrolysis and reduces the size of sol particles, thus influencing the surface area and in turn rate of apatite formation of bioactive glasses. In addition, the addition of concentrated NH4OH decreases the gelation time and new bioactive materials have been produced using Ca/Sr substitution in BG compositions. Thus, the aim of this work was to prepare BG 58S by the sol-gel technique at room temperature using phosphoric acid (PA) as the phosphorus precursor compared with conventional precursor triethylphosphate (TEP) and to evaluate the effect of the adding NH4OH (1 or 2 M) as gelation catalyst in order to select the better route to Sr incorporate. The products were characterized using XRD, FTIR and confocal Raman spectroscopy. The composition prepared with 1M NH4OH (PA-1M) presented more evidence of NBO bonds, and the absence of crystallinity. Thus, BG 58S-5 wt% Sr was prepared using the alkali-mediated sol-gel process (PA-1M) and characterized as the techniques mentioned in addition to bioactivity and cytotoxicity assays. Both compositions showed the development of a layer of apatite when treated in a simulated body fluid (SBF). Strontium composition showed higher cell viability and more evidence of calcium phosphate formation while calcium carbonate is mainly identified in strontium-free composition.Item Calcium Aluminate Cement Blends Containing Bioactive Glass and Strontium for Biomaterial Applications(SciELO) Barbosa, Ana Margarida; Santos, Kennedy Wallace dos; Gonçalves, Irene S.; Leite, Priscila Maria Sarmeiro Corrêa Marciano; Martorano, Antonio Secco; Grisote, Gabriela; Raucci, Larissa Moreira Spinola de Castro; Oliveira, Paulo Tambasco de; Raniero, Leandro José; Oliveira, Ivone Regina deIn this work blends based on calcium aluminate cement (CAC) containing bioactive glass (BG) (5, 7.5 and 10 wt%) and strontium oxide (1 wt%) were produced aiming improve their bioactivity and the capacity to stimulate the bone regeneration. In the first part, the blends containing only BG were characterized as theoretical density, microhardness, uniaxial cold crush strength after SBF and apparent porosity and pore size distribution before and after SBF treatment. In the second part, bioactivity and cell culture tests were also conducted in the blends containing BG and strontium oxide. The addition of 7.5 wt% of BG in homogeneous calcium aluminate cement (CH) improved its mechanical properties as microhardness and uniaxial cold crushing strength. The blends were more bioactive due to the presence of a highly soluble amorphous phase as confirmed by means of SEM/EDX mainly for 7.5 wt% BG without and with Sr from 1 day in SBF. FTIR analyses indicated the formation the apatite-like phase by means of increase of intensity of the PO43- peaks after SBF treatment. All blends allowed the development of the osteoblastic phenotype and the formation of mineralized matrix increased due to the inclusion of BG and Sr promoting the osteogenesis process.
