Abstract:Mycobacterium smegmatis (Ms), with its short generation time and low biosafety requirements, serves as an appropriate model to study Mycobacteria in general and is useful for assays of anti-tuberculosis agents. Recently, ceramic materials have been used in biomedical applications as a substrate. The aim of this work was to evaluate the ability of growth by Ms over supports prepared with a ceramic mixture. The supports were synthetized from hydroxyapatite (HA) and In2TiO5. SEM, EDS and XRD were used for analyze… Show more
