Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study is aim to develop a new bone regeneration method that concurrently uses artificial materials and autogenous bone graft. The electrical polarization method that out group have been proposing is employed on both bioceramic materials and autogenous bone that is extracted during the operation. As a result, an improvement of biocompatibility and osteoconductivity are expected. We investigated the electrical properties of bone (collagen fibrils and apatite minerals) and found that bone can be electrically polarized by an external voltage. In addition, we also investigated the surface properties of hydroxyapatite that was artificially fabricated. Surface charges that were induced by the poling method were evaluated by the Kelvin probe method. We confirmed the mechanism that the surface charges on the polarized hydroxyapatite are induced by the polarization which is formed by the polarization process and uniformly distributed in the polarized material.
