| Research Abstract |
Hydroxyapatite is useful as an implantable material because of its good biocompatibility with surrounding tissues. Apatites have been applied in dentistry to fill up resorbed bone after tooth extraction and in defective areas of mandibular bone. However, most commercial hydroxyapatites are Sintered. Furthermore, conventional block-type hydroxyapatite is difficult to process into complex form and granular-type hydroxyapatite does not readily retain the required form. In this study to obtain better handling properties, carbonate-apatite with chemical composition and crystallinity similar to those of human bone, was synthesized and mixed with collagen solution. As a pellet, the composite was well biocompatible with soft and hard tissues. UV-irradiated samples kept their shape for longer periods. Furthermore, heparin was bound onto the composites to attach the bone morphological protein (BMP), which has an ability to induce bone formation. Analysis of heparin was carried out successfully. However, since the affinity of heparin for BMP was not enough to apply, further investigations are in progress.
