Journal of the American Ceramic Society, ISSN: 0002-7820, DOI: 10.1111/jace.15216, Vol.101, No.2, pp.602-611, 2018 Abstract:
Sodium aluminophosphate glasses were evaluated for their bone repair ability. The glasses belonging to the system 45Na2O–xAl2O3-(55-x)P2O5, with x = (3, 5, 7, 10 mol%) were prepared by a melt-quenching method. We assessed the effect of Al2O3 content on the properties of Na2O–Al2O3–P2O5 (NAP) glasses, which were characterized by density measurements, DSC analyses, solubility, bioactivity in simulated body fluid and cytocompatibility with MG-63 cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first investigation of calcium-free Na2O–Al2O3–P2O5 system glasses as bioactive materials for bone tissue engineering. Keywords:
