Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study was designed to investigate as to whether calcium phosphate precipitation and its crystal phases affect its bioactivity of materials used for bone substitute materials. The materials, synthesized in batch or continuous preparations, were made through wet and dry mixing procedures and subjected for analyses by physical techniques, such as Raman spectroscopy, to indentify the crystal phases included. It was suggested that the activity of osteoblastic cells could be influenced by distinct crystals of octacalcium phosphates obtained in the continuous preparation.
