We examined whether Ca surface modification ranging from molecular to nano order level gave osteoconductivity to ceramics with high mechanical property. As a result of optimization for treatment condition, it was appeared that much Ca ions could be immobilized onto alumina substrate when hydrothermallytreated at 125℃in the presence of 50 mmol^-1 CaC1^2 solution for 7 days. The treated alumina substrate showed spontaneous apatite deposition in simulated body fluid. Response to rat bone marrow cell was investigated so that the response on the treated alumina substrate was significantly higher than those on nontreated alumina substrate.
