In-vivo assessment of minerals substituted hydroxyapatite / poly sorbitol sebacate glutamate (PSSG) composite coating on titanium metal implant for orthopedic implantation.

Currently, bio-mimetic material synthetic processes are involved in bone implant design which is closely related to natural bone. In this work, Zinc, Cerium and Selenium substituted hydroxyapatite/ Poly (sorbitol sebacate glutamate) (Zn, Ce, Se-HAP/PSSG, M-HAP/PSSG) composite was prepared by sol-gel method as a bio-mimetic materials for bone implantation. The physiochemical characterizations of M-HAP/PSSG was analyzed by Fourier transform infra red (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).
