    Notes: The influence of calcium (Ca) at titanium surface on co-precipitation of Ca-P and bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The titanium surface containing Ca was prepared by immersing titanium plates into a saturated calcium hydroxyl (Ca(OH)2) solution. A solution containing BSA, calcium and phosphate ions was used for the co-precipitation test. Both BSA and calciumphosphate co-precipitated onto titanium surfaces with and without Ca. For the former, however, a thicker carbonate apatite coating, which consisted of finer crystal grains, formed and more protein precipitated compared to the surface without Ca. These results indicated that Ca at the titanium surface was favorable to the co-precipitation of BSA and Ca-P. Moreover, chemical interactions probablyoccurred during the co-precipitation of BSA and Ca-P

    Notes: The surface of synthetic calcium hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) was modified through combining freeze-drying, solvent replacement and surface modification methods in an effort to obtain the deaggregative n-HA crystallites. Three surface modification agents: Polyethylene glycol (PEG, Mw: 6000), poly(propyl oxide)-poly (ethyl oxide)-co-poly(propyl oxide)(Pluronic F-127, Mw: 12,000) and poly(d, l-lactide)-co-poly (ethylene glycol) (PELA, Mw: 20,000)were selected. The dispersion of the modified n-HA was characterized by sedimentation time in distilled water, acetone and dimethyl formamide (DMF). The results indicate that the three surface modification agents influence the dispersion of n-HA crystallites in various solvent based on different mechanisms. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation shows that the dried and acetone-replacement powders are composed of needle-like HA crystallites isolated individually. The chosen solvents have a profound effect on the sedimentation time. In distilled water, the dispersion of as-synthesized n-HA crystallites is increased greater by F127 than by PEG. After freeze-drying, the two n-HA particles show homogeneous dispersion in acetone. The colloid stability of freeze-dried HA/PEG, solution-replaced HA/F127 and solution-replaced HA/PELA in DMF were improved significantly. The suspensions remained stable after 30 days with only a bluetransparent sol being observed

    Notes: In the present work, technique of plasma polymerization was used to generate amido (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) on titanium surface for immobilizing bovine serum albumin (BSA).After plasma polymerization of allylamine and crylic acid, the contact angle with respect to doubledistilled water significantly increased. Surface components were detected by X-ray photoelectronspectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy. The results showedthat BSA was successfully immobilized on the titanium surface and the amounts of BSA onspecimens were relied on the properties of thin film deposited through plasma polymerization,which was corresponding to the ultraviolet spectrophotometer result

    Notes: In this work, triethyl phosphate (TEP) was used to bioactivating titanium. Titanium platesgrafted with TEP were immersed in a two times concentrated simulated body fluid (2SBF) toinvestigate deposition of hydoxyapatite (HA) on the surface. A phosphate buffer solution (PBS) withbovine serum albumin (BSA) was used to evaluate adsorption of protein on the grafted titaniumsurface. The morphology, component and structure of samples were examined by scanning electronicmicroscopy, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffractionrespectively. The concentration change of BSA in adsorption test was examined with theultraviolet-visible absorption spectra (UV). The analyses showed that TEP grafted onto the titaniumsurface. In 2SBF, calcium and phosphate ions deposited spontaneously onto the grafted titaniumsurface and formed a HA coating with a network-like microporous structure after being immersed for3 days. The coating consisted of HA particles with 180-265nm in thickness and 72-85nm in width.The diameter of the micropores was about 200nm. The HA coating appeared better uniformity thanthat on the modified titanium using phosphoric acid. BSA rapidly adsorbed onto the grafted titaniumsurface at first half an hour and then the adsorption quantity almost kept constant. These resultsindicate that TEP grafting is an effective approach to modify bioactivity of titanium

    Notes: A microporous apatite coating was fabricated by a heat-oxidation and chemical routine. The morphology, composition and structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy with X-ray energy dispersion spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The components of the coating were predominantly apatite, next tri-calcium phosphate and octa-calcium phosphate. The pore size ranged from 1µm to5µm. The thickness of the coating was about 6µm ~ 10µm. The microporous coating was Ca-deficient carbonate apatite

    Notes: The biomimetic approach of mineralization in vitro is adopted to investigatesystematically the nucleation and growth of bone-like apatite on the surface of biomaterials such as bioceramics, metals and polymers, and those chemically surface-treated. The simulated environment is kept isothermic at the human body temperature of 36.5C with three kinds of simulated physiological fluids. The experimental results show that (1) inherent properties of biomaterials determine their bioactivity and the different crystalline structure of same materials results in thedifference in bioactivity; (2) the bioactivity can effectively be improved by the surface treatment of biomaterials via chemical methods and by the addition of bioactive particles in a polymer matrix; (3) the bone-like apatite, nucleated and grown in the simulated body fluid with the same ion concentrations to that of the human plasma, possesses the same composition, structure and morphology despite of matrixes; (4) the difference in bioactivity with biomaterials is indicated by the different time for bone-like apatite to nucleate and to grow on their surfaces

    Notes: Influence of heat-treatment conditions on wear resistance of titanium was investigated. Titanium plates were subjected to heat-treatment in air and water vapor respectively. Heat-treatments increased micro-hardness of titanium. The plate heat-treated in air (H) has the highest roughness and the plate treated in water vapor (W) lowest. After heat-treatment surface oxide was rutile. The friction coefficient of W was the lowest and almost stable at about 0.18. Non-heat--treated titanium plate (S) had a highest coefficient up to 1.1. Wear resistance of heat--treated titanium, especially W was significantly superior to non-treated titanium. The wear ofS resulted mainly from adhesion failure, H involved with abrasive wear and fatigue failure. For W, a complex wear mechanism was probably existed

    Notes: Hollow hydroxyapatite microspheres (H-HAMs) with controlled characteristicmesoporous structure on the shell were successfully fabricated by using core template technology and sol-gel process. The fabrication of H-HAMs mainly included three distinct steps: the preparation of core template spheres of chitin by emulsifying chitin solution in oil, the formation of core-shell composite spheres of chitin-HA/chitin after a layer of chitin/HA solution coated on the surface of chitin core templates by means of a gelling process of chitin solution with the help of water in the cores, and the harvest of H-HAMs through a special sintering procedure to removechitin. The size and shape of H-HAMs were chiefly determined by the size and morphology of core templates. The thickness of shells was easily controlled by altering water content of the starting template particles, and the characteristic mesoporous structure on the shell was related to the proportion of chitin in the chitin/HA composite solution and the sintering temperature. H-HAMswith characteristic mesoporous architecture on the shell have many potential applications such as used as a carrier for sustained release of drugs in the therapy of hard tissue system

    Notes: A network-like porous layer on titanium was prepared by acid-etching with a mixture ofCaCl2 and HCl. The pores ranged from 1 to 10!m. The small pores distributed in big pores. In thesimulated biological environment, porous octacalcium phosphate (OCP) coatings spontaneouslyformed on the porous- surfaced titanium. Pre-calcification after acid-etching accelerated OCPprecipitation. The OCP coatings had big pores of about 25!m and small pores of 1~3!m, the latterdistributed in the former at different depth
