Hydroxyapatite chromatography is shown to be an excellent method for chromatographically purifying monoclonal antibodies (Mab). Mab contained in eluates from Protein A columns was partially purified on ceramic hydroxyapatite (CHT™) Type I, 40 μm ceramic hydroxyapatite using two scouting methods which provide milligram amounts of Mab typical at laboratory scale. The result from one of the scouting methods was optimized to obtain a high concentration of purified Mab with acceptable clearance of cell culture impurities. Several techniques (linear phosphate screening, linear alkaline salt screening, and two alkaline salt step gradients) are described for obtaining high concentrations of purified Mab in a lab-scale CHT chromatography column.

Bioprinting of nanohydroxyapatite (nHA)-based bioinks has attracted considerable interest in bone tissue engineering. However, the role and relevance of the physicochemical properties of nHA incorporated in a bioink, particularly in terms of its printability and the biological behavior of bioprinted cells, remain largely unexplored. In this study, two bioinspired nHAs with different chemical compositions, crystallinity, and morphologies were synthesized and characterized: a more crystalline, needle-like Mg-doped nHA (N-HA) and a more amorphous, rounded Mg- and CO-doped nHA (R-HA).

Mild hypophosphatasia (HPP) can be difficult to distinguish from other bone disorders in the absence of typical symptoms such as the premature loss of primary teeth. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the crystallinity of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and the three-dimensional structure of collagen in HPP teeth at the molecular level and to search for new biomarkers of HPP. Raman spectroscopy was used to investigate the molecular structure, composition, and mechanical properties of primary teeth from healthy individuals and patients with HPP.

Bionic bioceramic scaffolds are essential for achieving excellent implant properties and biocompatible behavior. In this study, inspired by the microstructure of natural bone, bionic hydroxyapatite (HAp) ceramic scaffolds with different structures (body-centered cubic (BCC), face-centered cubic (FCC), and gyroid Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMSs)) and porosities (80 vol.%, 60 vol.

Bone defects present a significant challenge in orthopedics and trauma surgery, necessitating innovative approaches to stimulate effective bone regeneration. This study investigated the potential of lithium-doped calcium silicate (LiCS) cement to enhance bone regeneration and modulate the immune microenvironment to promote tissue repair. We synthesized a LiCS ceramic powder and performed comprehensive analyses of its physicochemical properties, including phase composition, morphology, setting time, and mechanical strength.

Polymer/ceramic nanocomposites integrated the advantages of both polymers and ceramics for a wide range of biomedical applications, such as bone tissue repair. Here, we reported triphasic poly(lactic--glycolic acid) (PLGA, LA/GA = 90:10) nanocomposites with improved dispersion of hydroxyapatite (HA) and magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles using a process that integrated the benefits of ultrasonic energy and dual asymmetric centrifugal mixing. We characterized the microstructure and composition of the nanocomposites and evaluated the effects of the HA/MgO ratios on degradation behavior and cell-material interactions.
