Biomaterials : Bioceramics and Bio-glasses

Project description :

Abstract The use of biomaterials with specific properties requires research and development of these in order to implant them in the human body thus forming a direct biochemical link. That is why the research works are much more interested in biocompatible materials, we quote as an example the hydroxyapatite.ce material have the advantage of being osteoconductive, that is to say to promote the bone regrowth on contact and colonization by the bone. There are therefore uses of HA in dental implants and fillers and in orthopedic surgery. Porous compounds based on calcium phosphate and in particular hydroxyapatite (HA) are currently among the main elements used to develop these bioceramics. To understand the biological response under the best conditions it is necessary to control the physicochemical properties of the evaluated material. That's why our research is working to master all the stages of development from powder to functionalized material; and focuses in particular on:
• Elaboration of hydroxyapatite for medical use.
• Obtaining the powder developed with high purity.
• Optimization of the operating conditions of the reaction of the synthesis of hydroxyapatite.
• Elaboration of porous architecture hydroxyapatite.
• Study of the porosity on the synthesis of the biomaterial and the immersed surface SBF.
• Study of the coating of hydroxyapatite for the medical application.
• Study of the biological evaluation of the biomaterial elaborated.
