Preparation of porous nanocomposite scaffolds with honeycomb monolith structure by one phase solution freezedrying method

Biodegradable porous nanocomposite scaffolds of poly（lactide-co-glycolide）（PLGA） and L-lactic acid（LAc） oligomer surface-grafted hydroxyapatite nanoparticles（op-HA） with a honeycomb monolith structure were fabricated with the single-phase solution freeze-drying method.The effects of different freezing temperatures on the properties of the scaffolds,such as microstructures,compressive strength,cell penetration and cell proliferation were studied.The highly porous and well interconnected scaffolds with a tunable pore structure were obtained.The effect of different freezing temperature（4℃,-20℃,-80℃and -196℃） was investigated in relation to the scaffold morphology,the porosity varied from 91.2%to 83.0%and the average pore diameter varied from（167.2±62.6）μm to（11.9±4.2）μm while theσ₁₀ increased significantly.The cell proliferation were decreased and associated with the above-mentioned properties.Uniform distribution of op-HA particles and homogeneous roughness of pore wall surfaces were found in the 4℃frozen scaffold.The 4℃frozen scaffold exhibited better cell penetration and increased cell proliferation because of its larger pore size,higher porosity and interconnection.The microstructures described here provide a new approach for the design and fabrication of op-HA/PLGA based scaffold materials with potentially broad applicability for replacement of bone defects.     

Preparation of nanostructure hydroxyapatite scaffold for tissue engineering applications

Hydroxyapatite due to its good biocompatibility and similar chemical composition to the mineral part of bone has found various applications in tissue engineering. Porous hydroxyapatite has high surface area, which leads to excellent osteoconductivity and resorbability, providing fast bone ingrowth. In this study, highly porous body of nanostructure hydroxyapatite was successfully fabricated via gelcasting method. The pure phase of hydroxyapatite was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The result of scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that the prepared scaffold has highly interconnected spherical pores with a size in the range 100–400 μm. The crystallite size of the hydroxyapatite scaffold was measured in the range 30–42 nm. The mean values of true (total) and apparent (interconnected) porosity were calculated in the range 84–91 and 70–78%, respectively. The maximum values of compressive strength and elastic modulus of the prepared scaffold were found to be about 1.5 MPa and 167 MPa, respectively, which were achieved after sintering at 1,000 °C for 4 h. Transmission electron microscopy analysis showed that the particle sizes are smaller than 80 nm. In vitro test showed good bioactivity of the prepared scaffold. The mentioned properties could make the hydroxyapatite scaffold a good candidate for tissue engineering applications, especially applications that did not need to stand any loading.     

A study on biomineralization behavior of N-methylene phosphochitosan scaffolds

Biomimetic growth of calcium phosphate over natural polymer may be an effective approach to constituting an organic/inorganic composite scaffold for bone tissue engineering. In this work, N-methylene phosphochitosan (NMPCS) was prepared via formaldehyde addition and condensation with phosphoric acid in a step that allowed homogeneous modification without obvious deterioration in chitosan (CS) properties. The NMPCS obtained was characterized by using FT-IR and elemental analysis. The macroporous scaffolds were fabricated through a freeze-drying technique. A comparative study on NMPCS and CS scaffold biomimetic mineralization was carried out in different media, i.e, a simulated body fluid (SBF) or alternative CaCl(2) and Na(2)HPO(4) solutions respectively. Apatite formation within NMPCS and CS scaffolds was identified with FT-IR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) and X-ray diffractometery (XRD). The results revealed alternate soaking of the scaffolds in CaCl(2) and Na(2)HPO(4) solutions was better than soaking in SBF solution alone in relation to apatite deposition on the scaffold pore walls. Biomineralization provides an approach to improve nature derived materials, e.g., chitosan derivative NMPCS properties e.g., compressive modulus, etc. SEM image of a NMPCS/apatite composite scaffold.     

In vitro degradation and release behavior of porous poly(lactic acid) scaffolds containing chitosan microspheres as a carrier for BMP-2-derived synthetic peptide

To develop a novel tissue engineering scaffold with the capability of controlled releasing BMP-2-derived synthetic peptide, porous poly(lactic acid)/chitosan microspheres (PLA/CMs) composites containing different quantities of chitosan microspheres were prepared by a thermally induced phase separation method. FTIR analysis revealed that there were strong hydrogen bond interactions between the PLA and chitosan component. Introduction of less than 30% CMs (on PLA weight basis) did not remarkably affect the morphology and porosity of the PLA/CMs scaffolds. The compressive strength of the composite scaffolds increased from 0.48 to 0.66 MPa, while the compressive modulus increased from 7.29 to 8.23 MPa as the microspheres' contents increased from 0% to 50%. In vitro degradability investigation indicated that the dissolution of chitosan component was preferential than PLA matrix and the inclusion of CMs could neutralize the acidity of PLA degradation products. Compared with the rapid release from CMs, the synthetic peptide was released from PLA/CMs scaffolds in a temporally controlled manner, mainly depending on the degradation of PLA matrix. The promising microspheres based scaffold release system can be used to deliver bioactive factors for a variety of non-loaded bone regeneration and tissue engineering application.     

Preparation and characterization of new materials based on silk fibroin,chitosan and nanohydroxyapatite

Abstract

In this paper, a series of porous nanohydroxyapatite/silk fibroin/chitosan (nHA/SF/CTS) scaffolds were successfully prepared using the freeze-drying method. The biomaterials were characterized by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and mechanical testing and thermogravimetric analysis. Moreover, studies of porosity, pore size, swelling properties and in vitro degradation test were performed. Research has proved that micro-structure, porosity, water adsorption and compressive strength were greatly affected by the components’ concentration, in particular the content of silk fibroin. SEM observations showed that the scaffolds of nHA/SF/CTS are highly porous, with pore size in wide range from 25 to 300?µm which is suitable for cell growth. nHA/SF/CTS scaffolds have sufficient mechanical integrity to resist handling during implantation and in vivo loading. Both, the compressive modulus and compressive strength of the scaffold, decrease with the increase in silk fibroin content.

In situ mineralization of hydroxyapatite on poly(vinyl alcohol) monolithic scaffolds for tissue engineering

A poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/hydroxyapatite (HAp) composite monolithic scaffold is prepared via thermally impacted non-solvent induced phase separation method, successively followed by an alternate soaking process. The morphology of the resulting composite monolith is observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The formation of hydroxyapatite is confirmed by X-ray diffraction, SEM in combination with energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effects of soaking cycle and soaking time upon the formation of hydroxyapatite on the monolith surface are systematically investigated. With the increase of soaking cycle and soaking time, the amount of the formed hydroxyapatite increases. As the soaking cycle increases, the water uptake of the composite monolith decreases. The PVA/HAp composite monolith greatly has a promising application as scaffold of bone tissue engineering.
