The practical process of manufacturing poly(methyl methacrylate)-based scaffolds having high porosity and high strength. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 142:105862. [PMID: 37086523 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.105862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023]
Abstract
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-based scaffolds have been produced using the granule casting method with grain sizes M80-100 and M100-140. The novelty of this study was the application of the cold-cutting method (CCm) to reduce the PMMA granule size. PMMA granule shape, granule size (mesh), and sintering temperature were the primary variables in manufacturing PMMA scaffolds. CCm was applied to reduce the granule size of commercial PMMA, which was originally solid cylindrical, by lowering the temperature to 3.5 °C, 0 °C, and-8.3 °C. PMMA granules that had been reduced were sieved with mesh sizes M80-100 and M100-140. Green bodies were made by the granule casting method using an aluminum mold measuring 8 × 8 × 8 mm3. The sintering process was carried out at temperatures varying from 115 °C to 140 °C, a heating rate of 5 °C/min, and a holding time of 2 h, the cooling process was carried out in a furnace. The characterization of the PMMA-based scaffolds' properties was carried out by observing the microstructure with SEM, analyzing the distribution of pore sizes with ImageJ software, and testing the porosity, the phase, with XRD, and the compressive strength. The best results from the overall analysis were the M80-100 PMMA scaffold treated at a sintering temperature of 130 °C with compressive strength, porosity, and pore size distribution values of 8.2 MPa, 62.0%, and 121-399 μm, respectively, and the M100-140 one treated at a sintering temperature of 135 °C with compressive strength, porosity, and pore size distribution values of 12.1 MPa, 61.2%, and 140-366 μm, respectively. There were interconnected pores in the PMMA scaffolds, as evidenced by the SEM images. There was no PMMA phase change between before and after the sintering process.

Indra A, Hamid I, Farenza J, Handra N, Anrinal, Subardi A. Manufacturing hydroxyapatite scaffold from snapper scales with green phenolic granules as the space holder material. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2022; 136:105509. [PMID: 36240527 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2022.105509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 10/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffold was made using the powder metallurgy with an use of a space holder method with a pore-forming agent from green phenolic (GP) granules. The novelty of this study was the use of GP granules as an agent that does not melt at high temperatures to avoid damaging the tangential contact between the HA powder during the sintering process. HA from snapper scales was added and mixed with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and ethanol to form a slurry. The ethanol content was then removed by drying at room temperature. The HA, which contained PVA, was added with GP granules as a pore-forming agent in various amounts to get the desired porosity. The green body was made using a stainless steel mold with the uniaxial pressing process under a pressure of 100 MPa. To make a scaffold sintered body, a sintering process ran at 1200 °C with a holding time of 2 h while maintaining the heating and cooling rates at 5 °C/min. The physical properties of the scaffold sintered body were characterized through linear shrinkage test, pore measurement, porosity test, phase observation by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and microstructure observation by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and digital microscopy (DM). So were the mechanical ones through a compressive strength test. The results showed that the sintered body had a compressive strength value of 1.6 MPa at a porosity of 60.7% with a pore size of 129-394 μm. The scaffold contained interconnections between pores at a HA:GP ratio of 55:45 wt%, which matched the condition required for cell tissue growth. The conclusion is that GP granules are good enough to be used as a pore-making agent on scaffolds using the space holder method because they do not damage the tangential contact between the HA powder during the sintering process. However, efforts are needed to remove the remaining GP ash on the scaffold.

Abstract
Bone regeneration-related graphene-based materials (bGBMs) are increasingly attracting attention in tissue engineering due to their special physical and chemical properties. The purpose of this review is to quantitatively analyze mass academic literature in the field of bGBMs through scientometrics software CiteSpace, to demonstrate the rules and trends of bGBMs, thus to analyze and summarize the mechanisms behind the rules, and to provide clues for future research. First, the research status, hotspots, and frontiers of bGBMs are analyzed in an intuitively and vividly visualized way. Next, the extracted important subjects such as fabrication techniques, cytotoxicity, biodegradability, and osteoinductivity of bGBMs are presented, and the different mechanisms, in turn, are also discussed. Finally, photothermal therapy, which is considered an emerging area of application of bGBMs, is also presented. Based on this approach, this work finds that different studies report differing opinions on the biological properties of bGBMS due to the lack of consistency of GBMs preparation. Therefore, it is necessary to establish more standards in fabrication, characterization, and testing for bGBMs to further promote scientific progress and clinical translation.

A Comparison of Bioactive Glass Scaffolds Fabricated by Robocasting from Powders Made by Sol–Gel and Melt-Quenching Methods. Processes (Basel) 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/pr8050615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Bioactive glass scaffolds are used in bone and tissue biomedical implants, and there is great interest in their fabrication by additive manufacturing/3D printing techniques, such as robocasting. Scaffolds need to be macroporous with voids ≥100 m to allow cell growth and vascularization, biocompatible and bioactive, with mechanical properties matching the host tissue (cancellous bone for bone implants), and able to dissolve/resorb over time. Most bioactive glasses are based on silica to form the glass network, with calcium and phosphorous content for new bone growth, and a glass modifier such as sodium, the best known being 45S5 Bioglass®. 45S5 scaffolds were first robocast in 2013 from melt-quenched glass powder. Sol–gel-synthesized bioactive glasses have potential advantages over melt-produced glasses (e.g., greater porosity and bioactivity), but until recently were never robocast as scaffolds, due to inherent problems, until 2019 when high-silica-content sol–gel bioactive glasses (HSSGG) were robocast for the first time. In this review, we look at the sintering, porosity, bioactivity, biocompatibility, and mechanical properties of robocast sol–gel bioactive glass scaffolds and compare them to the reported results for robocast melt-quench-synthesized 45S5 Bioglass® scaffolds. The discussion includes formulation of the printing paste/ink and the effects of variations in scaffold morphology and inorganic additives/dopants.

Functional Bioglass-Biopolymer Double Nanostructure for Natural Antimicrobial Drug Extracts Delivery. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10020385. [PMID: 32098412 PMCID: PMC7075305 DOI: 10.3390/nano10020385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2020] [Revised: 02/19/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Aseptic loosening and periprosthetic infections are the main causes of implant failure. Strategies to mitigate this drawback are therefore mandatory to avoid primary and revision replacement surgeries. A functional bioapatite–biopolymer double nanostructure fabricated by matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation to prevent infection of orthopedic and dental implants could promote osseointegration and ensure controlled delivery of natural antimicrobial drugs. The synthesized nanostructure consists of two overlapping layers, the lower from a biocompatible polymer for anticorrosive protection, and the upper of bioactive glass incorporating antimicrobial plant extract, acting as a potential drug delivery system. Morphology, composition, adherence, ability for drug delivery and biological properties (cytotoxicity and antimicrobial effect) were studied. Structures proved compact and stable, conserving a remarkable drug delivery ability for more than 21 days, i.e., enough to ensure long-term microbes’ eradication.
