Abstract
In the present work, copper whitlockite (Cu-WH, Ca18Cu2(HPO4)2(PO4)12) was successfully synthesized and comprehensively characterized, founding the base knowledge for its future studies in medicine, particularly for bone regeneration. This material is a copper-containing analog of the well-known biomineral magnesium whitlockite (Mg-WH, Ca18Mg2(HPO4)2(PO4)12). The synthesis of powders was performed by a dissolution-precipitation method in an aqueous medium under hydrothermal conditions. Phase conversion from brushite (CaHPO4·2H2O) to Cu-WH took place in an acidic medium in the presence of Cu2+ ions. Optimization of the synthesis conditions in terms of medium pH, temperature, time, Ca/Cu molar ratio and concentration of starting materials was performed. The crystal structure of the synthesized products was confirmed by XRD, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, 1H and 31P solid-state NMR, and EPR. Morphological features and elemental distribution of the synthesized powders were studied by means of SEM/EDX analysis. The ion release in SBF solution was estimated using ICP-OES. Cytotoxicity experiments were performed with MC3T3-E1 cells. The study on thermal stability revealed that the synthesized material is thermally unstable and gradually decomposes upon annealing to Cu-substituted β-Ca3(PO4)2 and Ca2P2O7.

Abstract
There is an urgent demand for antibacterial bone grafts in clinics. Worryingly, the misuse and overuse of antibiotics accelerate the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, this study prepared a novel injectable bioceramic cement without antibiotics (FS-BCS), which showed good antibacterial properties by loading iron and strontium onto a matrix composed of brushite and calcium sulfate. The setting time, injectability, microstructure, antibacterial properties, anti-biofilm properties, and cytocompatibility of the novel bioceramic cement were evaluated thoroughly. The results showed that the material was highly injectable and antiwashout. The antibacterial tests revealed that FS-BCS inhibited the growth of 99.9% E. coli and S. aureus separately in the broth due to the synergistic effect of strontium and iron. Simultaneously, crystal violet and fluorescent staining tests revealed that the material could significantly inhibit the formation of E. coli and S. aureus biofilms. In addition, the co-incorporation of iron and strontium promoted the proliferation and migration of osteoblasts. Therefore, FS-BCS has good application potential in antibiotic-free anti-infection bone grafting using minimally invasive surgery.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cements have the advantage that they can be prepared as a paste that sets in a few minutes and can be easily adapted to the shape of the bone defect, which facilitates its clinical application. In this research, six formulations of brushite (dicalcium phosphate dihydrated) cement were obtained and the effect of the addition of sodium alginate was analyzed, such as its capacity as a tetracycline release system. The samples that contain sodium alginate set in 4 or 5 min and showed a high percentage of injectability (93%). The cements exhibit compression resistance values between 1.6 and 2.6 MPa. The drug was released in a range between 12.6 and 13.2% after 7 days. The antimicrobial activity of all the cements containing antibiotics was proven. All samples reached values of cell viability above 70 percent. We also observed that the addition of the sodium alginate and tetracycline improved the cell viability.
