“…Several studies have shown that BG is angiogenic, 16 osteoconductive, 17,18 and osteoinductive. 19 BG also supports osteoblasts, which are vital for adhesion, growth, differentiation, and new bone formation in bone tissue engineering.…”

“…In addition to its osteoconductive and osteostimulative properties, BAG S53P4 has also shown excellent antibacterial properties on both aerobic and anaerobic species invitro [16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. BAG S53P4 is also the first known biomaterial that has been shown to decrease biofilm burden, is effective towards multi-resistant "super bugs" and does not induce resistance in bacteria [23][24][25]. The antibacterial properties of the glass are related to a high pH and an osmotic pressure in the vicinity of the glass, caused by the dissolution process at the glass surface [26].…”

“…The bioactive glass S53P4 (BG) is a bone‐substitute, silica‐based biomaterial composed of a mixture of oxides (53% SiO 2 , 23% Na 2 O, 20% CaO and 4% P 2 O 5 ). It is osteoconductive and osteoproductive and has the unique property of being antibacterial to many aerobic, anaerobic and multiresistant bacteria . The inhibition of bacterial growth is probably due to the release of ions at the first stage of implantation that causes elevation of pH and osmotic pressure.…”
