The 45S5 bioglass uttering Class A bioactivity promotes both osteoconduction as well as osteoinduction. Though one of the higher reactive bioactive materials known with structural and physiological influence upon ionic modulation, poor mechanical properties are perceived. The possible solution to overcome the weak stability is to choose material's composition that provides retained bioactivity and improved mechanical stability. Meanwhile, primary burst out of Na + ions increases the local pH, harms cell life, and acts as a well-known disruptive modifying species that weakens the bioactive glass network, decreasing network connectivity, showing faster degradation and lowering mechanical stability. Therefore, in this study, more detailed systematic exploration on structural influence of sodium monovalent cation and its behavior on physiological environment was genuinely studied and reported that bioactivity of the bioactive glass can be highly achieved even without Na + ions. The result exhibits benefits of sodium free bioactive glass (denoted as No Na + BG) over Na + BG and exhibits improved mechanical stability and also possible degradability, having in-built apatite phase even before immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). Also, sodium free bioglass proved as a superior candidate for erythrocyte compatibility with rapid clotting tendency on interaction with blood and a promising replacement for 45S5 bioglass in all aspects especially in mechanical stability view, which can withstand more than 5 months in phosphate buffer saline (PBS).
Herein, Fe3+ ions substituted Bi2WO6 nanostructures have been fabricated by a facile co-precipitation technique with Fe concentrations varying from X = 0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5. X-ray diffraction analysis...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
