NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:255.

Abstract
Synthesized hydroxyapatite (sHA)-calcium phosphate (CaP) based biomaterials play a vital role and have been widely used in the process of bone regeneration for bone defect repair, due to their similarities to the inorganic components of human bones. However, for bone tissue engineering purpose, the composite components, physical and biological properties, efficacy and safety of sHA still need further improvements. In this work, we synthesized inhomogeneous hydroxyapatite based on biomimetic trace elements (Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Ni, Mo, Sr, Co, BO33-, and CO32-) co-doped into HA (THA) (Ca10-δMδ(PO4)5.5(CO3)0.5(OH)2, M = trace elements) via co-precipitation from an ionic solution. The physical properties, their bioactivities using in vitro osteoblast cells, and in vivo cytotoxicity using zebrafish were studied. By introducing biomimetic trace elements, the as-prepared THA samples showed nanorod (needle-like) structures, having a positively charged surface (6.49 meV), and showing paramagnetic behavior. The bioactivity studies demonstrated that the THA substrate can induce apatite particles to cover its surface and be in contact with surrounding simulated body fluid (SBF). In vitro biological assays revealed that the osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells were well-attached with growth and proliferation on the substrate's surface. Upon differentiation, enhanced ALP (alkaline phosphatase) activity was observed for bone cells on the surface of the THA compared with that on the control substrates (sHA). The in vivo performance in embryonic zebrafish studies showed that the synthesized THA particles are nontoxic based on the measurements of essential parameters such as survivability, hatching rate, and the morphology of the embryo. The mechanism of the ions release profile using digital conductivity measurement revealed that sustained controlled release was successfully achieved. These preliminary results indicated that the synthesized THA could be a promising material for potential practical applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bioceramics have been used in orthopedic surgery for several years. Magnesium (Mg) is an essential element in bone tissue and plays an important role in bone metabolism. Mg-doped bioceramics has attracted the attention of researchers recently. However, the optimal doping amount of Mg in β-TCP and the immunomodulatory property of Mg-doped β-TCP (Mg-TCP) have not been determined yet. In this study, β-TCP scaffolds doped with different contents of magnesium oxide (0 wt%, 1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%) with gyroid structure were printed by digital light processing (DLP) method, and the physicochemical and biological functions were then investigated. Mg-doping improved the physicochemical properties of the β-TCP scaffolds. In vitro experiments confirmed that the doping of Mg in β-TCP scaffolds promoted the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and angiogenic differentiation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), where the 5Mg-TCP has the optimal properties when using the "one cell type" method. It was also found that all Mg-TCP facilitated the polarization of RAW264.7 cells to the M2 phenotype, especially the 3Mg-TCP. However, 3Mg-TCP displayed the optimal osteogenic and angiogenic potential when using a "multiple cell type" method, which referred to culturing the BMSCs or EPCs in the macrophage-conditioned medium. Finally, the in vivo experiments were conducted and the results confirmed that the 3Mg-TCP scaffolds possessed the satisfying bone defect repair capability both after 6 and 12 weeks of implantation. This study suggests that 3Mg-TCP scaffolds provide the optimal biological performance and thus have the potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Substituted calcium phosphates (CaPs) are vital materials for the treatment of bone diseases and repairing and replacement of defects in human hard tissues. In this paper, we present some applications of the rarely used pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and hyperfine interaction spectroscopy approaches [namely, electron spin-echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) and electron-electron double-resonance detected nuclear magnetic resonance (EDNMR)] to investigate synthetic CaPs (hydroxyapatite, tricalcium, and octacalcium phosphate) doped with various cations (Li+, Na+, Mn2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, and Ba2+). These resonance techniques provide reliable tools to obtain unique information about the presence and localization of impurity centers and values of hyperfine and quadrupole tensors. We show that revealed in CaPs by EPR techniques, radiation-induced stable nitrogen-containing species and carbonate radicals can serve as sensitive paramagnetic probes to follow CaPs' structural changes caused by cation doping. The most pulsed EPR, ESEEM, and EDNMR spectra can be detected at room temperature, reducing the costs of the measurements and facilitating the usage of pulsed EPR techniques for CaP characterization.

Abstract
In the present work, a series of zinc whitlockite (CaxZny(HPO4)2(PO4)12) powders was synthesized by a low-temperature dissolution-precipitation process for the first time. The phase conversion from calcium hydroxyapatite to zinc whitlockite occurred in an acidic medium in the presence of Zn2+ ions. Variable chemical composition of the synthesis products was achieved by changing Ca-to-Zn molar ratio in the reaction mixture. Investigation of the phase evolution as a function of time demonstrated that phase-pure zinc whitlockite powders can be synthesized in just 3 h. It is also demonstrated that single-phase products can be obtained when the Ca-to-Zn ratio in the reaction medium is in the range from 9 to 30. With higher or lower ratios, neighboring crystal phases such as scholzite or calcium hydroxyapatite were obtained. The morphology of the synthesized powders was found to be dependent on the chemical composition, transforming from hexagonal to rhombohedral plates with the increase of Zn content. Thermal stability studies revealed that the synthesized compounds were thermally unstable and decomposed upon heat treatment.

Synthesis of β-Ca2P2O7 as an Adsorbent for the Removal of Heavy Metals from Water. SUSTAINABILITY 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/su13147859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
In the present work, beta-calcium pyrophosphate (β-Ca2P2O7) was investigated as a potential adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions from water. Single-phase β-Ca2P2O7 powders were synthesized by a simple, scalable and cost-effective wet precipitation method followed by annealing at 800 °C, which was employed for the conversion of as-precipitated brushite (CaHPO4∙2H2O) to β-Ca2P2O7. Physicochemical properties of the sorbent were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis (TGA/DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and low temperature adsorption–desorption of nitrogen (BET method). The synthesized powders consisted of porous plate-like particles with micrometer dimensions. Specific surface area calculated by the BET method was found to be 7 m2 g−1. For the estimation of sorption properties, the aqueous model solutions containing different metal ions (Al3+, Cd2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Sn2+, Sr2+ and Zn2+) were used. The adsorption test revealed that β-Ca2P2O7 demonstrates the highest adsorption capacity for Pb2+ and Sn2+ ions, while the lowest capacity was observed towards Sr2+, Ni2+ and Co2+ ions. The optimal pH value for the removal of Pb2+ ions was determined to be 2, which is also related to the low solubility of β-Ca2P2O7 at this pH. The adsorption capacity towards Pb2+ ions was calculated as high as 120 mg g−1.

The Synthesis and Characterization of Sol-Gel-Derived SrTiO3-BiMnO3 Solid Solutions. CRYSTALS 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/cryst10121125] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
In this study, the aqueous sol-gel method was employed for the synthesis of (1−x)SrTiO3-xBiMnO3 solid solutions. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of single-phase perovskites with a cubic structure up to x = 0.3. A further increase of the BiMnO3 content led to the formation of a negligible amount of neighboring Mn3O4 impurity, along with the major perovskite phase. Infrared (FT-IR) analysis of the synthesized specimens showed gradual spectral change associated with the superposition effect of Mn-O and Ti-O bond lengths. By introducing BiMnO3 into the SrTiO3 crystal structure, the size of the grains increased drastically, which was confirmed by means of scanning electron microscopy. Magnetization studies revealed that all solid solutions containing the BiMnO3 component can be characterized as paramagnetic materials. It was observed that magnetization values clearly correlate with the chemical composition of powders, and the gradual increase of the BiMnO3 content resulted in noticeably higher magnetization values.
