Spherical Bioactive Glass with Enhanced Rates of Hydroxyapatite Deposition and Hemostatic Activity

Abstract: High‐surface‐area mesoporous bioactive glass materials have been developed, which demonstrate accelerated deposition rates of hydroxyapatite when immersed in simulated body fluids. Also, a novel blood‐clotting application for bioactive glass materials, composed of microspheres (see TEM image), has been designed. Both bone growth and blood clotting are surface dependent hence the effect of changing the shape of the glass particles on the in vitro deposition rate and hemostatic efficacy has been investigated.

“…Bioactive glasses can also serve as vehicle for the local delivery of selected ions being able to control specific cell functions [30,[57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64]. For example, mesoporous BG microspheres have demonstrated enhanced haemostatic activity, as well as reduced clot detection times and increased coagulation rates compared to nonporous microspheres [65]. The release of calcium ions is believed to be responsible for its haemostatic properties [65].…”

The release of calcium ions is believed to be responsible for its haemostatic properties [65]. Moreover, ferromagnetic bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics containing magnetite are being currently developed for hyperthermia treatment of cancer [19,[66][67][68][69].…”

“…[29,30] Furthermore, mesoporous bioactive glass particles have also exhibited haemostatic activity under in vitro conditions. [31] Although bioactive glasses (microsize and nanosize), especially Bioglass®, have been incorporated into PHAs, these have been mainly scl-PHAs, in order to develop composites with focus on bone tissue engineering and drug delivery applications. [25,32] In this study therefore we sought to investigate, for the first time, the potential of a novel nanocomposite system of poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate), a promising new biodegradable and biocompatible natural polymer, with bioactive glass nanoparticles (nBG) as a unique matrix support for skin tissue engineering applications.…”

“…The substantial advantages of systems containing nanoscale bioactive glass have been demonstrated in recent publications. [1][2][3] The nanometric particles have high surface areas and can form an interface that performs better when composited with porous polymer matrix. Introducing an appropriate percentage of nanometric bioactive glass particles in polymeric materials can increase the mechanical strength of the polymeric material.…”
