Synthetic materials for bone defects have been widely used for biomedical applications. One of these materials is bioactive ceramic-based microspheres in the size range of couple 100s m. These microspheres are used for irregular defect filling operations due to high packing efficiency. The spherical shape also increases the surface area, reactivity, and cell adhesion. The osteoconduction (bone tissue growth) is the primary concern for hard-tissue replacements and grafts. Alpha-tricalcium phosphate (-TCP, -Ca3(PO4)2), a calcium orthophosphate with high solubility, is an attractive option in the powder form as a direct bone substitute material due to its cement-type reactivity setting to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHAp, Ca9(HPO4)(PO4)5(OH)) in aqueous environments. The cement product is considered as a bioactive and biomimetic material due to its high chemical resemblance with the natural bone mineral. In this study, an emulsion-based microsphere formation has been accomplished by utilizing the cement nature of -TCP, enabling shape preservation for water-based -TCP slurry. Another structural component of the microspheres was an organic binder to improve and control the shaping ability, osteoconductivity and mechanical properties. The developed microspheres include -TCP:Ca-Alginate, -TCP:Gelatin, and -TCP:CSH (-TCP:Calcium Sulfate Hemihydrate) that are formed using water in oil (w/o) emulsion-based system enabling size and morphology control. The microsphere formation was finalized by long-term ex-situ hydration of spheres shaped by emulsion. The effects of the emulsion parameters; stirring efficiency, temperature on the microsphere size and morphology were investigated by parametric studies. The effects of binder type, concentration, and hydration media (DI water and buffer solution) on hydration of -TCP to CDHAp were studied by a parametrical approach. The microstructure and mechanical properties of different hybrid microspheres have been compared and reported.

In Vivo Performance of Poly(epsilon-caprolactone) Constructs Loaded with Gentamicin Releasing Composite Microspheres for Use in Bone Regeneration
Sezer, Umran Aydemir; BİLLUR, DENİZ; HURİ, GAZİ; Huri, Pinar Yilgor; AKSOY, EDA AYŞE; Terzioglu, Hakan; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Hasırcı, Nesrin (2014-10-01)
For materials used in the production of dental and orthopedic implants or scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration, the properties such as capacity to enhance cell attachment and proliferation, and antimicrobial activity to prevent biofilm formation are very important to improve the clinical utility of the material. In this study, poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) sponges with antimicrobial activity were prepared by incorporating gentamicin loaded beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP)-Gelatin microspheres, and ...
MICROSTRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTIC OF NANO CALCIUM PHOSPHATES DOPED WITH FLUORIDE AND TITANIUM IONS
Gungor, Serap; Evis, Zafer (2013-10-31)
Calcium phosphates (CaP) are frequently used in medical applications due to their high biocompatibility in the human body. In this study, nano-sized CaPs (with Ca/P molar ratios of 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.67, and 2) doped with titanium (Ti4+) and fluoride (F-) ions were synthesized by a precipitation method and sintered at 1300 degrees C for 1h. These bioceramics were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM and micro-hardness. It was observed that high amount of Ti4+ led to a decrease in densification when Ca/P ratio was 1...
Enhanced Sintering of TiNi Shape Memory Foams under Mg Vapor Atmosphere
Aydoğmuş, Tarık; Bor, Sakir (2012-12-01)
TiNi alloy foams are promising candidates for biomaterials to be used as artificial orthopedic implant materials for bone replacement applications in biomedical sector. However, certain problems exist in their processing routes, such as formation of unwanted secondary intermetallic phases leading to brittleness and deterioration of shape memory and superelasticity characteristics; and the contamination during processing resulting in oxides and carbonitrides which affect mechanical properties negatively. Mor...
Dip coating of calcium hydroxyapatite on Ti-6Al-4V substrates
Mavis, B; Tas, AC (2000-04-01)
Ti-6Al-4V alloy is the most commonly used metallic material in the manufacture of orthopedic implants. The main inorganic phase of human bone is calcium hydroxyapatite (Ca-10(PO4)(6)-(OH)(2), HA). To achieve better biocompatibility with bone, metal implants made of Ti-6Al-4V are often coated with bioceramics. Dip-coating techniques scarcely are used to apply HA onto metallic implants. New dipping-solution recipes to be used for HA coatings are described in this work. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray d...
Co-doped hydroxyapatites as potential materials for biomedical applications
YILMAZ, BENGİ; ALSHEMARY, AMMAR ZEIDAN GHAILAN; Evis, Zafer (2019-01-01)
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a synthetic biomaterial resembling the composition of mammalian hard tissue and thus, it is widely employed as a bone graft material, hard tissue engineering scaffold and coating layer for metallic substrates. Biological apatite is non-stoichiometric in nature. It is composed of small crystals and characterized by poor crystallinity and relatively high solubility with respect to stoichiometric HA. Chemical compositions of these crystals consist of Ca, P and trace amounts of various io...
