Characteristics of synovial fluid required for optimization of lubrication fluid for biotribological experiments

Abstract: Wear testing of total joint replacement (TJR) is mandatory in preclinical testing before implantation of TJR into the human body. Testing is governed by current international standards that recommend bovine serum (BS) as a lubricating fluid to replace synovial fluid (SF). Recently, the use of BS has been criticized because of differences in content, fluid characteristics, and nonhuman origin. As a result, a more realistic lubricant mimicking SF is needed. To define SF composition, we analyzed SF obtained durin… Show more

“…The levels of different components within SF may differ with the person and age, and they also depend on the presence of disease. The total volume of SF, protein concentration, pH value, viscosity, and other properties are known to vary between healthy persons and patients with OA at different stages . The concentration of proteins and other components differs for diseased and periprosthetic SF, and the condition includes decreased effective viscosity, increased protein content, and increased pH …”

“…The most abundant components of SF reported in the literature [22][23][24][25][26]28] are summarised in Table 1. The primary proteins are identified as albumin and γ-globulin and their relative and total concentration can vary widely depending on the fluid pathology [23,24,26].…”
