© 2022 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.Ion doping is an approach to modify properties of materials, like hydroxyapatite (HA), that contributes to designing biomaterials with desired characteristics applicable in bone defect treatments. Recently, boron (B) has been noticed in biomaterial fields due to its beneficial effects on formation, growth, and quality of bone. In this study, B-doped HA nanoparticles with different molar concentrations of B (0.05, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) were synthesized through microwave-assisted wet precipitation. The effects of B content on various properties of HA were evaluated. The results demonstrated that the size of HA particles reduced from 106 nm to 89-85 nm in B doped materials. Meanwhile, the crystallinity degree of B doped HA (BHA) samples was between 89.90% and 93.77%, compared to 95.19% of HA. Diametral tensile strength of samples was measured in the ranges of 2.51 and 3.61 with no significant difference among groups. The micro-hardness of HA was 0.88 GPa, whilst doped ones had hardness values of 0.5 GPa–0.68 GPa. Biodegradability of samples increased from less than 1% to approximately 4% after 28 days, while B-doping did not make any change in the degradation rate. Doping dosages were appropriate in terms of bioactivity and cell viability, and B doping caused higher bioactivity and cell proliferation. All changed properties were dose-dependent and more effective in doped groups with a higher amount of B. Despite proliferative effect, 260 μg/l and 770 μg/l of B release in two groups with the highest dopant concentrations did not positively influence the osteogenic activity of cells. Our results demonstrated that doping concentrations that resulted in B release ≤260 μg/l seem more appropriate dosage, especially for bone tissue engineering and substitute applications due to promoted bioactivity and proliferation, as well as no obstructive effects on mechanical properties and osteogenic activities of HA.

Effects of biomimetic synthesis route and sintering temperature on physicochemical, microstructural, and mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite Kaya, Yasemin; Jodati, Hossein; Evis, Zafer (2021-01-01) Biomimetic synthesis of bioceramics using simulated body fluid (SBF) is a route to produce biomaterials with a more suitable microstructure and characteristics required for bone defect treatments. As matter of fact, the biomimetic method allows us to imitate the natural environment needed for the synthesis of bone-like materials, such as hydroxyapatite (HA). In this study, biomimetic HA was successfully synthesized through the microwave-assisted method by the employment of SBF in different ratios with water...
3D porous bioceramic based boron-doped hydroxyapatite/baghdadite composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering Jodati, Hossein; Evis, Zafer; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Alshemary, Ammar Z.; Motameni, Ali (2023-04-01) Making composite scaffolds is one of the well-known methods to improve the properties of scaffolds used in bone tissue engineering. In this study, novel ceramic-based 3D porous composite scaffolds were successfully prepared using boron-doped hydroxyapatite, as the primary component, and baghdadite, as the secondary component. The effects of making composites on the properties of boron-doped hydroxyapatite-based scaffolds were investigated in terms of physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties. T...
Interaction of anodized Ti6A17Nb with simulated body fluid Izmir, Merve; Tufan, Yiğithan; Ercan, Batur (Journal of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of Gazi University, 2019-01-01) The present work investigates modification of Ti6Al7Nb alloy surfaces using anodization for orthopedic applications. By optimizing the anodization parameters. nanotubular oxide layers with tubular diameters tailored between 25 nm to 140 nm was fabricated on Ti6Al7Nb alloy surfaces. When Ti6Al7Nb samples possessing nanotubular surface features were immersed in simulated body fluid for 30 days. calcium phosphate mineral formation was observed on these surfaces. Results showed that anodized Ti6Al7Nb samples wi...
Preparation and characterization of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds modified with cell-loaded fibrin gel Malikmammadov, Elbay; Endoğan Tanır, Tuğba; Kızıltay, Aysel; Hasırcı, Nesrin (2019-03-15) Poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) is one of the most commonly used polymers in the production of tissue engineered scaffolds for hard tissue treatments. Incorporation of cells into these scaffolds significantly enhances the healing rate of the tissue. In this study, PCL scaffolds were prepared by wet spinning technique and modified by addition of fibrinogen in order to form a fibrin network between the PCL fibers. By this way, scaffolds would have micro and nanofibers in their structures. Drying of the wet s...
Synthesis of baghdadite using modified sol–gel route and investigation of its properties for bone treatment applications Jodati, Hossein; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Evis, Zafer; Alshemary, Ammar Z; ÇELİK, ERDAL (2022-01-01) The requirement for biomaterials with superior properties, used in bone treatment applications, is inevitable due to escalated bone tissue defects. Baghdadite (BAG) is a calcium silicate that benefits from the presence of zirconium (Zr) in its structure and has attracted huge attention in recent years. In this study, a modified sol–gel route was proposed to synthesize BAG by dissolving Zr precursor separately and using optimum amounts of solvent and chelating agent. Due to thermal gravimetric analysis and d...
