Effect of Magnesium on the Mechanical and Bioactive Properties of Biphasic Calcium Phosphate

Abstract: Incorporation of trace elements into calcium phosphate structure is of great interest for the development of artificial bone implants. Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) composed of hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) have been synthesized in the presence of magnesium (5 M%-20 M%) by gel method under physiological conditions. Crystallization of Mg-BCP in the gel medium mimics the Mg intake in the human body. Powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared analyses confirmed that the Mg… Show more

“…[ 15 ] On the other hand, calcium phosphate-based ceramics can resemble the mineral phase, and as a consequence, these ceramics are bioactive, osteoconductive, and suitable for bone repair. [ 16 ] Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramics contains a diverse amount of hydroxylapatite (HA), (Ca 10 [PO 4 ] 6 [OH] 2 ) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP [Ca3[PO4]2]). [ 17 ] HA is a bioactive ceramic which is a poorly soluble material whereas TCP is highly soluble which helps to increase the degradation rate of cements.…”

“…[3,10] Besides, it also influences the apatite crystallization, promoting the formation of BTCP. [13] The presence of Na in biological apatites plays an important role in the cell adhesion and also in bone metabolism and resorption processes. [3] Trace Zn amounts favor osteoblastic cell proliferation and differentiation, adding a potent and selective inhibitory effect on osteoclastic bone resorption in vitro.…”
