The development of a new generation of biomaterials includes a sol–gel process to obtain glass foams, which is a well established method for CaO–SiO2–P2O5 compositions, but is not yet recognized for Bioglass® containing sodium oxide.

Hybrid scaffolds based on bioactive glass (BAG) particles (<38 µm), covalently linked to gelatin (G*) using 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS), have been studied for bone bioengineering. In this study, two glass compositions (13-93 and 13-93B20 (where 20% of the SiO2 was replaced with B2O3)) were introduced in the gelatin matrix. The Cfactor (gelatin/GPTMS molar ratio) was kept constant at 500. The hybrids obtained were found to be stable at 37 °C in solution, the condition in which pure gelatin is liquid. All hybrids were characterized by in vitro dissolution in Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (TRIS) solution (for up to 4 weeks) and Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) (for up to 2 weeks). Samples processed with 13-93B20 exhibited faster initial dissolution and significantly faster precipitation of a hydroxyapatite (HA) layer. The faster ion release and HA precipitation recorded from the G*/13-93B20 samples are attributable to the higher reactivity of borosilicate compared to silicate glass. The MC3T3-E1 cell behavior in direct contact with the hybrids was investigated, showing that the cells were able to proliferate and spread on the developed biomaterials. Tailoring the glass composition allows us to better control the material’s dissolution, biodegradability, and bioactivity. Bioactive (especially with 13-93B20 BAG) and biocompatible, the hybrids are promising for bone application.

Bioactivity is an important aspect in biomaterial science ensuring materials used are safe for clinical application. The study describes fabrication of composites containing polylactic acid (PLA) – polyethylene glycol (PEG) with incorporation of sol-gel derived 45S5 bioactive glass (BG). Thermal analysis via Differential Thermal Analysis shows a favorable point over degree of crystallization that influence cells attachment, although non-significant difference in values indicates BG has homogenously dispersed. This correlates to X-ray diffraction analysis where non-significant difference is seen in intensities of the diffraction peaks, which confirms low impact of BG brittleness properties over the fabricated composite. Composites’ pH and degradation study in Simulated Body Fluid shows a steady increment profile over time and lower degradation rate for the composite after incorporation of BG. In vitro cell proliferation study also showed that HDF cells seeded on composite film of P/BG2.5 exhibit highest cell viability with steady increment of proliferation throughout the observation period.

The possibility of enhancing mechanical properties by incorporation of polymeric components to sol-gel derived materials is extremely attractive to prepare macroporous scaffolds, leading to materials with potential applications in both hard and soft tissue regeneration. In this work bioactive glass-polyvinyl alcohol hybrids were developed and their mechanical behavior was evaluated. Hybrids were synthesized by adding polyvinyl alcohol to a sol-gel precursor solution, which was then foamed with the addition of a surfactant and vigorous agitation. The foams were cast, aged and dried at 40°C. A cleaning step to decrease the acidic character of the obtained hybrids was undertaken by immersion in a NH4OH solution. The mechanical behavior of the hybrids was evaluated in compression using both stress and strain control tests. Hybrid foams had a high porosity varying from 60-90% and the macropore diameter ranged from 10 to 600 µm. The modal macropore diameter varied with the inorganic phase composition and with the polymer content in the hybrid. The strain at fracture of the as prepared hybrid foams was substantially greater than pure gel-glass foams. The cleaned hybrids presented a slightly higher strength and lower deformation than the as prepared foams.
