Pure as well as Mg2+- and F--doped nanophase (i.e., grain sizes in the nanometer regime in at least one dimension) hydroxyapatite (HA) samples were synthesized by a precipitation method followed by sintering at 1100 degrees C for 1 h to determine their microstructural, mechanical, and osteoblast (bone-forming cell) adhesion properties pertinent for orthopedic applications. Different amounts of Mg2+ and F- ions (specifically from 0 to 7.5 mol %) were doped into the HA samples. X-ray diffraction was used to identify the presence of crystalline phases, lattice parameters, and crystal volumes of the samples. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) was further used to chemically characterize HA, and thus FTIR patterns revealed the characteristic absorption bands of HA. Microhardness measurements were also performed to assess mechanical properties of the novel formulations. Results of this study showed an improvement in sample density for some of the samples, which was a consequence of the molar percentage variation of the dopants. Moreover, in most of the samples doped with Mg, beta-tricalcium phosphate was observed as a second phase to HA. In addition, 1% Mg- and 2.5% F-doped HA had the highest microhardness values. Lastly, results demonstrated the highest osteoblast densities when the HA samples were doped with 2.5-7.5% Mg2+ and F. Thus, the results of this study suggest that decreasing the grain size of HA into the nanometer regime and doping HA with Mg2+ and F- can potentially increase the efficacy of HA for orthopedic applications.

Enzymatically induced mineralization of platelet-rich fibrin Douglas, Timothy E. L.; Gassling, Volker; Declercq, Heidi A.; Purcz, Nicolai; Pamula, Elzbieta; Haugen, Havard J.; Chasan, Safak; de Mulder, Eric L. W.; Jansen, John A.; Leeuwenburgh, Sander C. G. (Wiley, 2012-05-01) Membranes of the autologous blood-derived biomaterial platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) were functionalized by incorporation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), an enzyme involved in mineralization of bone, and subsequently incubated in calcium glycerophosphate (CaGP) solution to induce PRFs mineralization with calcium phosphate (CaP) to improve PRFs suitability as a material for bone replacement. Incorporated ALP retained its bioactivity and induced formation of CaP material within PRF membranes, as confirmed by SEM, ...
Microstructure, microhardness, and biocompatibility characteristics of yttrium hydroxyapatite doped with fluoride Toker, S. M.; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Evis, Zafer (Wiley, 2011-02-01) The current study focused on doping of hydroxyapatite (HA) with constant yttrium (Y3+) and varying fluoride (F-) compositions to investigate its microstructure, microhardness, and biocompatibility. HA was synthesized by precipitation method and sintered at 1100 degrees C for 1 h. Y3+ and F- ion dopings resulted in changes in densities. In x-ray diffraction analysis, no secondary phase formation was observed. Lattice parameters decreased upon ion substitutions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results show...
Nano-scale phase separation in amorphous Fe-B alloys: Atomic and cluster ordering AYKOL, Muratahan; Mehrabov, Amdulla; Akdeniz, Mahmut Vedat (Elsevier BV, 2009-01-01) Nano-scale phase separation encountered in metallic glasses is investigated for amorphous Fe80B20 and Fe83B17 alloys in an interaction field calculated via electronic theory of alloys in pseudopotential approximation combined with MC equilibration and reverse MC simulation. The phenomenon is identified regarding three topological aspects: (1) pure Fe-clusters as large as similar to 0.9 nm and pure Fe-contours similar to 0.72 nm thick are found to exist; (2) Fe-rich highly deformed-bcc regions are observed; ...
Critical currents in Bi-2223 tapes near T-c under magnetic field and gamma-irradiation Kayed, TS; Ozkan, H; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Ercan, I (IOP Publishing, 2000-12-01) The critical temperature and critical current of Bi-2223 tapes have been studied near T-c under a magnetic field and gamma -irradiation. T-c decreases from 109 to 96 K with an increase in B up to 100 mT. In the 100-110 K range I-c decreases by about 75-85% at steady rates in low fields up to 20-50 mT, then decreases to zero at slower rates with further increase of field. The I-c versus B plots are non-exponential in small fields (up to 30 mT at 100 K and up to 10 mT at 108 K) and change to exponential form ...
Synthesis, phase transitions and cellular biocompatibility of nanophase alumina-hydroxyapatite composites BAŞAR, BURÇİN; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Keskin, Dilek; Evis, Zafer (Informa UK Limited, 2011-05-01) Nanophase alpha-alumina and hydroxyapatite (HA) composites with and without CaF(2) were prepared and sintered at 1100 degrees C for 1 h to investigate their densification, structural and biocompatibility properties. X-ray diffraction method was performed to examine the second phases in the materials. It was observed that HA slightly decomposed into tricalcium phosphate and CaO with the addition of CaF(2). The addition of CaF(2) also resulted in an increase in the density of the composites. The composites we...
