This work was aimed to obtain and characterize the well-defined biocomposites based on β-tricalcium diphosphate(V) (β-TCP) co-doped with Ce3+ and Pr3+ ions modified by poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) with precise tailored chain length and different phosphate to polymer ratio. The composites as well as β-tricalcium diphosphate(V) were spectroscopically characterized using emission spectroscopy and luminescence kinetics. Morphological and structural properties were studied using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The self-assembled poly(l-lactide) in a shape of rose flower has been successfully polymerized on the surface of the β-tricalcium diphosphate(V) nanocrystals. The studied materials were evaluated in vitro including cytotoxicity (MTT assay) and hemolysis tests. The obtained results suggested that the studied materials may find potential application in tissue engineering.

Background: The polymeric hydrocolloids of natural origin such as gums and mucilages have their own significance in food and pharmaceutical industries due to safety, cost, biodegradability, biocompatibility, etc. Objective: This study includes the assessment of feasibility of gummy exudates of Cochlospermum religiosum for development of microspheres through emulsification technique. Methods: The effects of exudates concentration, glutaraldehyde amount and process temperature were analyzed on particle-size and swelling dynamics of developed microspheres. The formulations were also characterized by thermal decomposition and powder X-ray diffraction technique to assess the effect of crosslinking. Results: The photomicrographs of preparations revealed the formation of microspheres with smooth, spherical and free-flowing nature. The swelling dynamics followed Fick’s diffusion mechanism for swelling media. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed the formation of ether-linkage after crosslinking of exudates by glutaraldehyde. The thermogravimetric curves disclosed the formation of strong bonds during crosslinking. Conclusion: The ease of gummy exudates of Cochlospermum religiosum for microspheres formation ascribed the potential of these formulations to incorporate therapeutic agent(s) to be applied as novel drug-carriers.

Inductive Behavior

The main objective of this study is to characterize the in vitro osteo inductive behavior of pearl nano crystallites. The results obtained from X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, and inductively coupled plasma mass (ICP-MS) analysis demonstrate that the pearls can induce the formation of a hydroxyl apatite (HA) layer on their surface in simulated body fluid (SBF), even after only short soaking periods. Further, MC3T3-E1 cells can easily attach and spread on the pearl powders after 1 h of cultivation.

In this work, the feasibility of using planetary ball milling for coating bearing balls with a self-lubricating film was investigated. Bearing balls with appropriate amount of MoS2 powder were put into vacuumed stainless steel vials and ball milled. With proceeding of ball milling, thickness of the self-lubricating film increased at first and then decreased. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) results revealed that the surface of the self-lubricating film was MoS2 and the inner region was a mixture of iron molybdenum alloys (Fe3Mo, FexMoy), MoS2 and FeS. Friction coefficient between the self-lubricating film and bear steel was 0.06~0.1.

We have demonstrated the synthesis of lanthanide co-doped nominally SrAl2O4 powders that phosphoresce over long durations. Previous work has reported that the color of phosphorescence depends on the nature of the alkaline earth cation, and that extended phosphorescence in Eu2+ and other lanthanide co-doped MAl2O4 (M= Sr, Ca, Ba) systems occurred with boron incorporation. To gain further insight into the mechanism of extended phosphorescence persistence, we investigated the incorporation of other glass-forming cations, Si and P. The Eu2+ and Dy3+ co-doped SrAl2O4 (SAED) powders were processed by solution polymerization and annealed at 1000oC under a reducing atmosphere. X-ray diffraction spectra revealed that these powders were multiphase. To characterize the optical properties, photoluminescence spectra and phosphorescence persistence curves were measured using a 325-nm wavelength excitation source. We report that the addition of B2O3 alone to SAED powders extended the persistence, while decreasing the luminosity, but more interestingly, the addition of B2O3 along with other glass formers dramatically increased the excitation luminosity.

Boehmite nanofibers of high quality were synthesized through a wet-gel conversion process without the use of a surfactant. The long nanofibers of boehmite with clear-cut edges were obtained by steaming the wet-gel precipitate at 170∘C for 2 days. Analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared emission spectroscopy (IES), as well as Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the products.

Potential Use

The ceramics in the system CaO–MgO–SiO2 has recently attracted a great deal of attention because they display a good in vitro bioactivity and have potential use as bone implants. Biphasic calcium-magnesium-silicate ceramics were prepared by a sol-gel method. The dried gel with chemical composition 3CaO.MgO.2SiO2 was thermally treated at 1200 °C for 2 hrs. The structural behavior of the synthesized ceramics was examined by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Merwinite crystalline phase and akermanite phase were recognized. Then, porous akermanite/merwinite scaffolds were prepared to utilize polymer sponge method and evaluated by employing SEM. Furthermore, bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) adhesion and proliferation on the scaffolds were evaluated by MTT assay test. Differentiation of the cells was assessed by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. The results demonstrated that BMSC adhered and spread well on akermanite scaffolds and proliferated with the increase in the culture time, and the differentiation rate of osteoblasts on scaffolds was comparable to that on blank culture plate control. Thus, the obtained results presented that the akermanite/merwinite scaffolds deserve attention for bone tissue engineering applications.
