Abstract
The objective of the present study was to incorporate surface modified porous multichannel BCP granule into CPC to enhance its in vivo biodegradation and bone tissue growth. The multichannel BCP granule (15wt%) was first coated with collagen subsequent to BMP-2 loading (ccMCG-B). It was then embedded into CPC to form CPC-ccMCG-B system. The newly developed CPC-ccMCG-B system was then examined for SEM, EDX, XRD, setting time, compressive strength, injectability, pH change, BMP-2 release, in vitro as well as in vivo studies and further compared with CPC. Optimized CPC (0.45mL/g) was found based on setting time and compressive strength studies. In vivo studies exhibited improved new bone formation and better degradation of CPC after 2 and 4weeks of implantation as compared to CPC as resulted from effective BMP-2 signaling. Our results suggest that CPC-ccMCG-B system might be used as a promising injectable bone substitutes in clinical applications.

Abstract
The state-of-the-art on calcium orthophosphate (CaPO4)-containing biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical applications is presented. Since these types of biomaterials offer many significant and exciting possibilities for hard tissue regeneration, this subject belongs to a rapidly expanding area of biomedical research. Through the successful combinations of the desired properties of matrix materials with those of fillers (in such systems, CaPO4 might play either role), innovative bone graft biomaterials can be designed. Various types of CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials those are either already in use or being investigated for biomedical applications are extensively discussed. Many different formulations in terms of the material constituents, fabrication technologies, structural and bioactive properties, as well as both in vitro and in vivo characteristics have been already proposed. Among the others, the nano-structurally controlled biocomposites, those containing nanodimensional compounds, biomimetically fabricated formulations with collagen, chitin and/or gelatin, as well as various functionally graded structures seem to be the most promising candidates for clinical applications. The specific advantages of using CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials in the selected applications are highlighted. As the way from a laboratory to a hospital is a long one and the prospective biomedical candidates have to meet many different necessities, the critical issues and scientific challenges that require further research and development are also examined.

Abstract
In this study, in situ forming gels are prepared using biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) as filler and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as a matrix exhibiting temperature-sensitive behavior. BCP was composed of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) with plate-like morphology and nano-sized hyadroxyapatite (HAp). Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and rheological results showed that low molecular weight HPMC had lower gelation temperature. Effects of BCP content and HAp/β-TCP ratio on rheological behavior of the gels were investigated. According to the results, all samples showed a pseudoplastic behavior and their viscosity increased with increasing mineral phase, especially β-tricalcium phosphate. In order to investigate interaction mechanisms between the mineral phase and polymer and also the effects of ion release, particle size, hydrophobisity, and hydrophilisity, hydrophobic and hydrophilic silica with different particle sizes were also utilized. Results showed that factors affecting the hydrophobisity and hydrophilisity of solution may influence the rheological properties.

Abstract
The combination of hydrogels and calcium phosphate particles is emerging as a well-established trend for bone substitutes. Besides acting as binders for the inorganic phase, hydrogels within these hybrid materials can modulate cell colonization physically and biologically. The influence of hydrogels on the healing process can also be exploited through their capability to deliver drugs and cells for tissue engineering approaches. The aim of this review is to collect some recent progress in this field, with an emphasis on design aspects and possible future directions.

Abstract
A major weakness of current orthopedic implant materials, for instance sintered hydroxyapatite (HA), is that they exist as a hardened form, requiring the surgeon to fit the surgical site around an implant to the desired shape. This can cause an increase in bone loss, trauma to the surrounding tissue, and longer surgical time. A convenient alternative to harden bone filling materials are injectable bone substitutes (IBS). In this article, recent progress in the development and application of calcium phosphate (CP)-based composites use as IBS is reviewed. CP materials have been used widely for bone replacement because of their similarity to the mineral component of bone. The main limitation of bulk CP materials is their brittle nature and poor mechanical properties. There is significant effort to reinforce or improve the mechanical properties and injectability of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and this review resumes different alternatives presented in this specialized literature.

Abstract
Endodontic treatment in dentistry is a delicate procedure and many treatment attempts fail. Despite constant development of new root canal filling techniques, the clinician is confronted with both a complex root canal system and the use of filling materials that are harmful for periapical tissues. This paper evaluates reported studies on biomaterials used in endodontics, including calcium hydroxide, mineral trioxide aggregate, calcium phosphate ceramics and calcium phosphate cements. Special emphasis is made on promising new biomaterials, such as injectable bone substitute and injectable calcium phosphate cements. These materials, which combine biocompatibility, bioactivity and rheological properties, could be good alternatives in endodontics as root canal fillers. They could also be used as drug-delivery vehicles (e.g., for antibiotics and growth factors) or as scaffolds in pulp tissue engineering.

Abstract
This study concerns the preparation and characterisation of microspheres associating
alginate and two different types of hydroxyapatite (HA), which are intended to be used as drug
delivery systems and bone regeneration matrices. Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HA-1 and HA-2)
were prepared using a chemical precipitation synthesis based on H3PO4, Ca(OH)2 and a surfactant,
SDS (sodium dodecylsulphate), as starting reagents. These two powders of nanoHA and alginate
were used to prepare two different types of microspheres. Both powders and microspheres were
characterised using FTIR, TEM, SEM, mercury porosimetry analysis and X-ray diffraction Results
show that pure hydroxyapatite (HA) and mixtures of HA/β-TCP in the nanometre range were
obtained from both HA syntheses. Microspheres with different characteristics were obtained from
these two types of hydroxyapatite.

Abstract
The nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite paste Ostim represents a fully degradable synthetic bone substitute for the filling of bone defects. Herein, we investigated in vivo the inflammatory and angiogenic host tissue response to this biomaterial after implantation. For this purpose, Ostim was implanted into the dorsal skinfold chambers of Syrian golden hamsters. The hydroxyapatite ceramic Cerabone and isogeneic transplanted cancellous bone served as controls. Angiogenesis, microhemodynamics, microvascular permeability, and leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction of the host tissue were analyzed over 2 weeks using intravital fluorescence microscopy. Ostim exhibited good biocompatibility comparable to that of Cerabone and cancellous bone, as indicated by a lack of venular leukocyte activation after implantation. Cancellous bone induced a more pronounced angiogenic response and an increased microvessel density when compared with the synthetic bone substitutes. In contrast to Cerabone, however, Ostim showed a guided neovascularization directed toward areas of degradation. Histology confirmed the ingrowth of proliferating vascularized tissue into the hydroxyapatite paste at sites of degradation, while the hydroxyapatite ceramic was not pierced by new microvessels. Thus, Ostim represents an injectable synthetic bone substitute, which may optimize the conditions for the formation of new bone at sites of bone defects by supporting a guided vascularization during biodegradation.

Abstract
The use of injectable biomaterials is of interest in osteoporotic patients to locally restore bone mass in sites at risk of fracture. An injectable bone substitute (IBS1 made of betaTCP/hydroxyapatite as a calcium phosphate substitute and hydroxy-propyl-methyl-cellulose as a polymer carrier) was used in a severely osteopenic rat model obtained by combining orchidectomy (ORX) and disuse (paralysis induced by botulinum toxin - BTX). Fifty-six aged male rats were randomized into three groups: 18 were SHAM operated; 38 were ORX and BTX injected in the right hindlimb; they constituted the OP (osteoporotic) group. One month after ORX-BTX surgery, 20 of these OP rats received a IBS1 injection in the right femur (OP-IBS1 rats). Animals were studied at the time of IBS1 injection 1 month post ORX-BTX (M1), 1 month (M2) and 2 months (M3) after IBS1 injection. Bone mass (BV/TV) and microarchitectural parameters were measured by microCT. BV/TV was decreased after ORX-BTX; ORX and BTX had cumulative effects on bone loss (differences maximized on the right femur). BV/TV (combining the volume of both bone and material in OP-IBS1 rats) was elevated at M1 but decreased at M2. Marked bone formation was found onto the biomaterial granules but bone had a woven texture. A marked increase in the number of nonosteoclastic TRAcP+ cells was found in the implanted area. IBS1 induced new bone formation shortly after implantation but both IBS1 and woven bone were resorbed without inducing lamellar bone. Biomaterial trials must be conducted with long-term implantation periods, in aged osteoporotic animals.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy of a ready-to-use injectable bone substitute on the prevention of alveolar ridge resorption after tooth extraction. Maxillary and mandibular premolars were extracted from 3 Beagle dogs with preservation of alveolar bone. Thereafter, distal sockets were filled with an injectable bone substitute (IBS), obtained by combining a polymer solution and granules of a biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic. As a control, the mesial sockets were left unfilled. After a 3 months healing period, specimens were removed and prepared for histomorphometric evaluation with image analysis. Histomorphometric study allowed to measure the mean and the maximal heights of alveolar crest modifications. Results always showed an alveolar bone resorption in unfilled sockets. Resorption in filled maxillary sites was significantly lower than in control sites. Interestingly, an alveolar ridge augmentation was measured in mandibular filled sockets including 30% of newly-formed bone. It was concluded that an injectable bone substitute composed of a polymeric carrier and calcium phosphate can significantly increase alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel route for the preparation of porous ceramic microspheres is described. Two ceramic powders, calcium-titanium-phosphate (CTP) and hydroxyapatite (HAp), were mixed with a sodium alginate solution that enabled the preparation of spherical particles, using the droplet extrusion method combined with ionotropic gelation in the presence of Ca(2+). The spherical particles were subsequently sintered, to burn-off the polymer and obtain calcium-phosphate microspheres with a uniform size and an interconnected porous network. CTP microspheres with diameters ranging from 513 +/- 24 microm to 792 +/- 35 microm and with pores of approximately 40 microm were obtained. HAp microspheres presented diameters of 429 +/- 46 microm and 632 +/- 40 microm and pores of ca. 2 microm. Depending on the formulations tested, the structure of both calcium phosphates may become altered during the sintering process, suggesting that the ratio between the ceramic phase and the polymer solution is a critical parameter. Porous microspheres prepared using the described methodology are promising candidates as bone defect fillers and scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
For the first time, an injectable bone substitute (IBS) made of a suspension of Calcium phosphate ceramic was used in a clinical trial in human after extraction of non conservable tooth (36 or 46). 11 patients did agree for implantation of their sockets with the biomaterial. It was an explorative study and the results showed no pain due to the biomaterial implantation, no infection, no inflammation and perfect biocompatibility. The safety and the bioactivity of this concept of biomaterial were confirmed in human implantation after several animals’ pre-clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy of a ready-to-use injectable bone substitute for bone regeneration around dental implants placed into fresh extraction sockets. METHODS Third and fourth mandibular premolars were extracted from three beagle dogs and the interradicular septa were surgically reduced to induce a mesial bone defect. Thereafter, titanium implants were immediately placed. On the left side of the jaw, mesial bone defects were filled with an injectable bone substitute (IBS), obtained by combining a polymer and biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic granules. The right defects were left unfilled as controls. After 3 months of healing, specimens were prepared for histological and histomorphometric evaluations. RESULTS No post-surgical complications were observed during the healing period. In all experimental conditions, histological observations revealed a lamellar bone formation in contact with the implant. Histomorphometric analysis showed that IBS triggers a significant (P<0.05) increase in terms of the number of threads in contact with bone, bone-to-implant contact, and peri-implant bone density of approximately 8.6%, 11.0%, and 14.7%, respectively. In addition, no significant difference was observed when number of threads, bone-to-implant contact, and bone density in the filled defects were compared to the no-defect sites. CONCLUSION It is concluded that an injectable bone substitute composed of a polymeric carrier and calcium phosphate significantly increases bone regeneration around immediately placed implants.

Abstract
The present study concerns the preparation and initial characterisation of novel calcium titanium phosphate-alginate (CTP-alginate) and hydroxyapatite-alginate (HAp-alginate) microspheres, which are intended to be used as enzyme delivery matrices and bone regeneration templates. Microspheres were prepared using different concentrations of polymer solution (1% and 3% w/v) and different ceramic-to-polymer solution ratios (0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 w/w). Ceramic powders were characterised using X-ray diffraction, laser granulometry, Brunauer, Emmel and Teller (BET) method for the determination of surface area, zeta potential and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Alginate was characterised using high performance size exclusion chromatography. The methodology followed in this investigation enabled the preparation of homogeneous microspheres with a uniform size. Studies on the immobilisation and release of the therapeutic enzyme glucocerebrosidase, employed in the treatment of Gaucher disease, were also performed. The enzyme was incorporated into the ceramic-alginate matrix before gel formation in two different ways: pre-adsorbed onto the ceramic particles or dispersed in the polymeric matrix. The two strategies resulted in distinct release profiles. Slow release was obtained after adsorption of the enzyme to the ceramic powders, prior to preparation of the microspheres. An initial fast release was achieved when the enzyme and the ceramic particles were dispersed in the alginate solution before producing the microspheres. The latter profile is very similar to that of alginate microspheres. The different patterns of enzyme release increase the range of possible applications of the system investigated in this work.

Abstract
Two dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) hydraulic cements and one apatite hydraulic cement were implanted in epiphyseal and metaphyseal, cylindrical bone defects of sheep. The in vivo study was performed to assess the biocompatibility of the DCPD cements, using the apatite cement as control. After time periods of 2, 4 and 6 months the cement samples were clinically and histologically evaluated. Histomorphometrically the amount of new bone formation, fibrous tissue and the area of remaining cement were measured over time. In all specimens, no signs of inflammation were detectable either macroscopically or microscopically. All cements were replaced by different amounts of new bone. The two DCPD-cements showed the highest new bone formation and least cement remnants at 6 months, whereas the apatite was almost unchanged over all time periods.

Abstract
Autologous bone grafting is currently considered the treatment of choice for correction of large bone defects. However, to avoid morbidity associated with autologous bone harvesting many artificial bone-substitute materials have been developed over the years. A new generation of resorbable materials is emerging, with promising results so far. In order to investigate the possibility to use one of these new materials as an alternative with better results than hydroxyapatite, an experimental study was performed. A new resorbable calcium phosphate particles and paste forms, the latter of which hardens in situ after application. In 28 sheep, a 3-cm segmental tibial defect was made and intramedullary fixed by an interlocking nail. Twelve weeks after defect filling, radiological, biomechanical, and histological examinations were performed. Mean radiographic and biomechanical tests results were compared with the Mann-Whitney test. Significance was set at p<0.05. Radiographically, the resorbable paste group performed better than all other groups. Biomechanical investigations showed a higher torsional stiffness (p=0.049) for the resorbable calcium-phosphate paste group in comparison with autologous bone. On histological examination, no adverse effects were observed in the calcium-phosphate groups. Resorption by osteoclasts was seen in the resorbable implants. In conclusion, the current study shows an advantageous radiological and mechanical outcome for resorbable calcium phosphates. This indicates that these new materials might be a potential alternative for autologous bone grafting in humans.

Abstract
The use of injectable calcium phosphate (CaP) biomaterials in noninvasive surgery should provide efficient bone colonization and implantation. Two different kinds of injectable biomaterials are presently under development: ionic hydraulic bone cements that harden in vivo after injection, and an association of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic granules and a water-soluble polymer vehicle (a technique particularly investigated by our group), providing an injectable CaP bone substitute (IBS). In our study, we compared these two approaches, using physicochemical characterizations and in vivo evaluations in light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and three-dimensional microtomography with synchrotron technology. Three weeks after implantation in rabbit bone, both biomaterials showed perfect biocompatibility and bioactivity, but new bone formation and degradation of the biomaterial were significantly greater for BCP granules than for ionic cement. Newly formed bone developed, binding the BCP granules together, whereas new bone grew only on the surface of the cement, which remained dense, with no obvious degradation 3 weeks after implantation. This study confirms that BCP granules carried by a cellulosic polymer conserve bioactivity and are conducive to earlier and more extensive bone substitution than a carbonated-hydroxyapatite bone cement. The presence of intergranular spaces in the BCP preparation, as shown on microtomography imaging, seems particularly favorable, allowing body fluids to reach each BCP granule immediately after implantation. Thus, the IBS functions as a completely interconnected ceramic with total open macroporosity. This new bone replacement approach should facilitate microinvasive bone surgery and local delivery of bone therapy agents.

Abstract
Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) materials are increasingly used to restore bone loss in surgery. Calcium-deficient apatites (CDA), the precursors of BCP, are closer in structure to biological apatites and can be associated with therapeutic agents to form drug-delivery systems. The purpose of this first in vivo study of CDA was to evaluate the osteoconductive properties of two composites, consisting of 40-80 microm granules carried by a cellulose-derived polymer, used to fill critical size bone defects in rabbit femoral ends. Animals were sacrificed 2 or 3 weeks after implantation. Histomorphometric analysis of scanning electron microscopy implant surface files was performed using gray level threshold that distinguish between bone or materials (white) and noncalcified tissue (black). Quantitative results for new bone formation showed no significant differences between the composites or the implantation periods. However, nearly all of the CDA disappeared early while supporting more extensive bone colonization than biphasic calcium phosphates implanted in the same conditions.

Abstract
Vancomycin encapsulation in biodegradable poly(epsilon-caprolactone) microparticles (200 microm mean diameter) was most efficient with a simple emulsion technique that dispersed 122.5 mg/g of polymer. Scanning electron micrographs showed smooth or pitted particles. Dissolution studies were correlated with microparticle morphology, indicating higher release with pitted particles when vancomycin was encapsulated in a dissolved state. The cytocompatibility of these poly(epsilon-caprolactone) microparticles was demonstrated by a direct contact cytotoxic assay. This material can be considered as an efficient drug delivery system for bone implantation.

Abstract
Synthesis of grafting silane on a hydro soluble cellulose ether (HPMC) was described. In alkaline medium, this derivate is under gel form. With a decrease of the pH, a self-hardening occurs due to the silanol condensation. For potential biomedical use, we described the silated-HPMC synthesis, the gel behavior after steam sterilization and the parameters of the silanol condensation i.e. pH, silane percentage and temperature. Minimum kinetic of the condensation was observed for pH between 5.5 and 6.5. So temperature catalyzed the reaction and the self-hardening speed was increased by silane percentage.

Abstract
The development of tissue engineered materials for the treatment of large bone defects would provide attractive alternatives to the autografts, allografts, non-degradable polymers, ceramics, and metals that are currently used in clinical settings. To this end, poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF), a viscous polyester synthesized from diethyl fumarate (DEF), has been studied for use as an engineered bone graft. We have investigated the photocrosslinking of PPF dissolved in its precursor, DEF, using the photoinitiator bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phenylphosphine oxide (BAPO) and low levels of ultraviolet light exposure. A three factor, 2 x 2 x 4 factorial design was developed, studying the effects of PPF number average molecular weight, BAPO initiator content, and DEF content upon photocrosslinking characteristics and mechanical properties. Uncured DEF/PPF solution viscosity fell over three orders of magnitude as DEF content was increased from 0% to 75%. The exothermic photocrosslinking reaction released low levels of heat, with no more than 160J/g released from any formulation tested. As a result, the maximum photocrosslinking temperature remained below 47 degrees C for all samples. Both sol fraction and swelling degree generally increased with increasing DEF content. Compressive mechanical properties were within the range of trabecular bone, with the strongest samples possessing an elastic modulus of 195.3 +/- 17.5 MPa and a fracture strength of 68.8 +/- 9.4MPa. Finally, the results indicate that PPF crosslinking was facilitated at low DEF precursor concentrations, but hindered at higher precursor concentrations. These novel DEF/PPF solutions may be preferred over pure PPF as the basis for an engineered bone graft because they (1) exhibit reduced viscosity and thus are easily handled, (2) form polymer networks with compressive strength at fracture suitable for consideration for trabecular bone replacement, and (3) may be readily fabricated into solids with a wide range of structures.

Abstract
The use of self-setting calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) as bioresorbable bone-replacement implant materials presently is limited to non-load-bearing applications because of their low compressive strength relative to natural bone. The present study investigated the possibility of strengthening a commercially available CPC, alpha-BSM, by incorporating various water-soluble polymers into the cement paste during setting. Several polyelectrolytes, poly(ethylene oxide), and the protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) were added in solution to the cement paste to create calcium phosphate-polymer composites. Composites formulated with the polycations poly(ethylenimine) and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) exhibited compressive strengths up to six times greater than that of pure alpha-BSM material, with a maximum value reached at intermediate polymer content and for the highest molecular weight studied. Composites containing BSA developed compressive strengths twice that of the original cement at protein concentrations of 13-25% by weight. In each case, XRD studies correlate the improvement in compressive strength with reduced crystallite dimensions, as evidenced by a broadening of the (0,0,2) reflection. This suggests that polycation or BSA adsorption inhibits crystal growth and possibly leads to a larger crystal aspect ratio. SEM results indicate a denser, more interdigitated microstructure. The increased strength was attributed to the polymer's capacity to bridge between multiple crystallites (thus forming a more cohesive composite) and to absorb energy through plastic flow.

Abstract
Although initial results were promising for an injectable bone substitute (IBS) associating a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) polymer vector (Benecel, 2 w/w %) with biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP), a sensitization reaction occurred probably related to the degree of polymer purity. In this context, Benecel and another HPMC, E4M were investigated in the present study. The expected composition of the polymers was confirmed by gas-liquid chromatography. Studies in the guinea pig showed that Benecel has strong sensitization capacity and E4M none. Benecel manifests impurities (30 times more than E4M) in individual fibers or rounded clumps that are apparently responsible for extreme sensitization. Purification by ultracentrifugation associated with 0.2 microm filtration can decrease sensitization capacity considerably, though with a slight loss of polymer concentration. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis showed that the impurities were largely cellulose derivatives. However, extraction by organic solvent, followed by FTIR studies and micro-X analysis, detected an oily substance containing carbon and silicon associated with the cellulose derivatives. E4M, a polymer with no sensitization capacity, could replace Benecel and improve results with IBS.

Abstract
This paper reports the effects of a synthetic bone substitute and bone allograft on cortical bone repair in an experimental model. To test the hypothesis that bovine trabecular bone matrix, BBM, can enhance the repair rate of cortical bone, osteotomies were created in the rabbit fibula and filled with either allograft or BBM particulates or left empty as controls. At five weeks post-surgery, mechanical tests and histological evaluations were performed. No significant differences were observed in the mechanical properties of the healing bone in the three animal groups (n=6). Histologically, the medullary cavity was obstructed and the cross-sectional area ratio of the osteotomies to intact bone was approximately 3 : 1. Highly significant area differences were observed between the intact bone group and both the BBM and the allograft groups (p< 0.001). At the junction between the original bone and the newly formed bone, both woven and lamellar bone microstructures were prevalent. However, in the BBM filled defects, the woven bone microstructure was not ostentatious. It is concluded that failure to demonstrate significantly differences between the treatments were due to the small sample sizes and or the efficacy of the tensile analysis.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown the effectiveness of an injectable bone substitute (IBS) composed of biphasic calcium phosphate in 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose gel (50/50 w/w). A therapeutic agent in the form of a drug can be added to the biomaterial by encapsulation into microparticles to protect the active agent, control its release and preserve the material rheological properties. Poly(epsilon-caprolactone) was used in this study because of its biocompatibility and resorbability, as tested in orthopaedic implants and surgical sutures. Particles (80-200 microm) were manufactured by a solvent evaporation-extraction process (1 g of polymer, 11-15 ml methylene chloride, with a stirring speed of 400-600 rpm) and introduced into the IBS in a 5-50% (V/V) range. Injectability was evaluated by texture analysis. With less than 45% of particles, the material had rheological properties similar to those of the reference IBS, whereas injectability decreased markedly with more than 45% of particles. A preliminary in vitro release study showed that this type of triphasic IBS could be efficient for drug delivery systems with osteoconduction properties.

Abstract
Macroporous biphasic calcium phosphate ceramics (MBCP) and a calcium phosphate injectable bone substitute (IBS), obtained by the association of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic granules and an aqueous solution of a cellulosic polymer, were compared in the same animal model. The two tested biomaterials were implanted in distal femoral osseous defects in rabbits. Qualitative and quantitative histological evaluation was performed three and eight weeks after implantation to investigate bone colonization and ceramic biodegradation associated with the two bone substitutes. Both biomaterials expressed osteoconduction properties and supported the apposition of a well-mineralized lamellar newly-formed bone. Bone colonization occurred much earlier and faster for IBS than for MBCP implants, although the respective rates of newly-formed bone after eight weeks of implantation did not differ significantly. For both biomaterials, ceramic resorption occurred regularly throughout the implantation period, though to a greater extent with IBS than with MBCP implants. The associated polymer in IBS produced intergranular spaces allowing body fluids to reach each BCP ceramic granule immediately after implantation, which may have favored osteoblastic activity, new bone formation and ceramic resorption. This completely interconnected open macroporosity could account for the earlier and more satisfactory bone substitution achieved with IBS.

Abstract
We have studied the osteogenic effects of nacre (mother of pearl) placed in experimental cavities prepared in the lumbar vertebrae of sheep. Some of cavities were filled with nacre, some with PMMA, and some were left empty. The vertebrae were removed 1, 8, 12 weeks after surgery, and assessed histologically and morphometrically. The nacre particles in the bone cavity and the surrounding intertrabecular spaces gradually dissolved beginning at 8 weeks after surgery. There were layers of newly formed bone, both woven and lamellar, in various stages of maturation in contact with or adjacent to the dissolving nacre. Quantitative assessment of the activation of bone formation adjacent to the cavities filled with nacre indicated significant activation of bone formation, which continued until week 12. There was also increased mineralization of the host bone at this time. There was no new bone formation in the empty cavities, or in those filled with PMMA. PMMA also caused necrosis of surrounding bone cells with a change in bone architecture and significant reductions in bone formation and mineralization. This study demonstrates that nacre stimulates bone-forming cells in vertebrae and appears to result in new bone formation.

Abstract
Solid composites of calcium phosphates and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) were prepared at temperatures of 121 degrees C. Three biologically relevant calcium phosphates were studied: CaHPO(4). 2H(2)O (DCPD), calcium deficient apatite (CDA), and biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP). Properties of the solid composites obtained were studied with FTIR, X-ray diffraction, and SEM techniques. Special attention was devoted to seeking a possible chemical interaction between calcium phosphates and HPMC. No interaction was found. Thus, HPMC was proven to have no influence on chemical properties of calcium phosphates.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to check the chemical stability of an injectable bone substitute (IBS) composed of a 50/50 w/w mixture of 2.92% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) solution in deionized water containing biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) granules (60% hydroxyapatite/40% beta-tricalcium phosphate w/w). After separation of the organic and mineral phases, capillary gas chromatography (GC) was used to study the possible modification of HPMC due to the contact with BCP granules following steam sterilisation and 32 days storage at room temperature. HPMC was extracted from IBS in aqueous medium, and a dialytic method was then used to extract calcium phosphate salts from the HPMC. The percentage of HPMC extracted from BCP was 98.5%+/-0.5%, as measured by UV. GC showed no chemical modifications after steam sterilisation and storage.

Abstract
The large number of orthopedic procedures performed each year, including many performed arthroscopically, have led to great interest in injectable biodegradable materials for regeneration of bone and cartilage. A variety of materials have been developed for these applications, including ceramics, naturally derived substances and synthetic polymers. These materials demonstrate overall biocompatibility and appropriate mechanical properties, as well as promote tissue formation, thus providing an important step towards minimally invasive orthopedic procedures. This review provides a comparison of these materials based on mechanical properties, biocompatibility and regeneration efficacy. Advantages and disadvantages of each material are explained and design criteria for injectable biodegradable systems are provided.

Abstract
A composite constituted of calcium phosphate (CaP) granules and a hydrophilic polymer as a carrier (hydroxy-propyl-methyl cellulose, HPMC) was developed to be an injectable bone substitute (IBS, CNRS patent). IBS is a composite and not an ionic cement. The composite obtained is ready to use and sterile. Chemical interactions between organic and inorganic components appeared during the association of the two. The interactions of the CaP and the polymer have been studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron microprobe (EDX), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HrTEM) SEM revealed a degradation of the granules into smaller particles while EDX was unable to show significant changes in the Ca/P ratio during aging of the composite. With Hr TEM, however, we observed hydrolysis (process of dissolution and precipitation) from the surface to about 13 nm into the HA crystals and occasional dissolution with precipitation of beta-TCP crystals. In HA, the first zone of interaction consisted of a single layer of small globular crystals of 2 to 3 nm in diameter. Numerous lattice patterns in all three axes could be observed. Under the globular crystals zone, the inter-reticular distances of the single crystals appeared enlarged by 1.2% (from 0.817 to 0.827 nm). The enlargement seems to correspond to diffusion of HPO(4) into the crystal lattice. In beta-TCP crystals, dissolution was observed to be several nanometers deep, but globular surface precipitation rarely was observed. With time or after steam sterilization, no changes were observed. These data demonstrate the strong interactions of the hydrophylic polymer with calcium phosphate, but only in the first several nanometers of thickness.

Abstract
This study investigated the in vivo performance of two composite injectable bone substitutes (IBS), each with different calcium-phosphate particles granulometries [40-80 (IBS 40-80) and 200-500 microm (IBS 200-500)]. These biomaterials were obtained by associating a biphasic calcium-phosphate (BCP) ceramic mineral phase with a 3% aqueous solution of a cellulosic polymer (hydroxy-propyl-methyl-cellulose). Both materials were injected for periods of 2, 3, 8, or 12 weeks into bone defects at the distal end of rabbit femurs. Quantitative results on new bone formation, BCP resorption, and staining for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity were studied for statistical purposes. Measurements with scanning electron microscopy and image analysis showed that the final rates of newly formed bone were similar for both tested IBS after 12 weeks of implantation. Bone colonization occurred more extensively during early implantation times for IBS 40-80 than for IBS 200-500. For the latter, BCP degradation occurred regularly throughout the implantation period, whereas it was very intensive during the first 2 weeks for IBS 40-80. Positive TRAP-stained degradation cells were significantly more numerous for IBS 40-80 than for IBS 200-500 regardless of implantation time. With the granulometry of either mineral phase, both tested IBS supported extensive bone colonization, which was greater than that previously reported for an equivalent block of macroporous BCP. The resorption-bone substitution process seemed to occur earlier and faster for IBS 40-80 than for IBS 200-500. Both tested IBS expressed similar biological efficiency, with conserved in vivo bioactivity and bone-filling ability.

Abstract
This in vivo study investigated the influence of two calcium phosphate particle sizes (40-80 microm and 200-500 microm) on the cellular degradation activity associated with the bone substitution process of two injectable bone substitutes (IBS). The tested biomaterials were obtained by associating a biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic mineral phase and a 3% aqueous solution of a cellulosic polymer (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose). Both were injected into osseous defects at the distal end of rabbit femurs for 2- and 3-week periods. Quantitative results for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) cellular activity, new bone formation, and ceramic resorption were studied for statistical purposes. Positive TRAP-stained degradation cells were significantly more numerous for IBS 40-80 than IBS 200-500, regardless of implantation time. BCP degradation was quite marked during the first 2 weeks for IBS 40-80, and bone colonization occurred more extensively for IBS 40-80 than for IBS 200-500. The resorption-bone substitution process occurred earlier and faster for IBS 40-80 than IBS 200-500. Both tested IBS displayed similar biological efficiency, with conserved in vivo bioactivity and bone-filling ability. Differences in calcium phosphate particle sizes influenced cellular degradation activity and ceramic resorption but were compatible with efficient bone substitution.

Abstract
We studied a new injectable biomaterial for bone and dental surgery consisting of a hydrophilic polymer as matrix and bioactive calcium phosphate (CaP) ceramics as fillers. This material is composed of complex fluids whose flow is determined by the laws of rheology. We investigated the macromolecular effects on this composite in a tube. The stability of the polymer and the mixture is essential to the production of a ready-to-use injectable biomaterial. These flow properties are necessary to obtain CaP bioactivity in a dental canal or bone defect during percutaneous surgery. Macromolecules provide spaces between CaP ceramic granules and facilitate the role of the biological agents of bone substitution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many different bone substitutes, such as autografts, allografts or synthetic biomaterials have been proposed to restore alveolar bone loss and support efficient placement of dental implants. This experimental study evaluated the osteoconductive properties of an injectable bone substitute (IBS) composed of a polymeric carrier and a calcium phosphate mineral phase, used to fill mandibular and maxillary canine extraction sockets. METHODS The polymer was a cellulose derivative (methyl-hydroxy-propyl-cellulose, MHPC), and the mineral phase consisted of granules of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramics 200 to 500 microm in diameter. Mandibular and maxillary premolars extracted from 3 dogs (a total of 60 extraction sites) were immediately treated with the IBS or left unfilled as control sites. Animals were sacrificed 3 months after implantation and all extraction sockets were prepared for histological evaluation. RESULTS Qualitative histological studies showed that the IBS was able to support the extensive apposition of well-mineralized newly formed lamellar bone over the entire socket surface and appeared to prevent alveolar ridge bone loss in treated extraction sites. Quantitative evaluation showed that the amount of newly formed bone was significantly higher in mandibular than maxillary extraction sockets for both treated and control sites. CONCLUSIONS An injectable bone substitute composed of a polymeric carrier and calcium phosphate was effective in enhancing the bone fill of extraction sockets. This approach may prove promising for periodontal lesions. The material expressed osteoconductive capacities, and the biological properties of the mineral phase were conserved.

Abstract
Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) of high-viscosity grade is used as a ligand for a bioactive calcium phosphate ceramic (the filler) in a ready-to-use injectable sterilized biomaterial for bone and dental surgery. Application of physico-chemical methods such as XPS, NMR, or Raman spectroscopy encounters difficulties when used to study such a multiphased material. This paper reports on the application of FT-IR microspectroscopy (FT-IRM) for the investigation of inorganic and organic phases of the rough composite and separated phases obtained by mechanical or chemical extraction methods. A comparison of FT-IRM with the conventional KBr pellet method was made and indicates that the macro and micro FT-IR methods are complementary: the former revealed new chemical groups not visualized with the KBr method whereas the latter detected the major compound of the blend. FT-IR microspectroscopy was revealed to be a powerful method of analysis that is complementary to other existing spectroscopic methods. Moreover, it is expected to be a useful tool in the study of biomaterials in biological samples.
