AI Article Synopsis
- The study focused on creating economic calcium phosphate powders from recycled oyster shells through a ball milling technique and subsequent heat treatment at 1,050°C.
- The process involved mixing oyster shell powder with calcium pyrophosphate and adding electrochemically synthesized mesoporous silicon microparticles before characterization.
- Testing for biocompatibility showed that the resulting powders performed well with murine cells, indicating their suitability for potential applications.
Article Abstract
The purpose of the study was to investigate the synthesis of economic calcium phosphate powders from recycled oyster shells, using a ball milling method. The oyster shell powder and a calcium pyrophosphate powder were used as starting materials and ball milled, then heat treated at 1,050°C for 5 h to produce calcium phosphate powders through a solid-state reaction. Electrochemically synthesized mesoporous silicon microparticles were then added to the prepared phosphate powders by mechanical mixer. The final powders were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy to analyze their chemical composition and determine the most suitable process conditions. The biocompatibility of the produced powders was also tested using murine cells and the results showed good biocompatibility.

To explore the effect of hydroxyapatite (HA) combined with concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the cavity filling during endoscopic mastoidectomy in patients with middle ear cholesteatoma. The data of patients with middle ear cholesteatoma who underwent endoscopic canal wall down (CWD) mastoidectomy and mastoid obliteration with hydroxyapatite in Huazhong University of Science and Technology Union Shenzhen Hospital from December 2017 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into observational group (HA+CGF) and control group (HA) according to whether CGF was used.

Reconstructing the orbit following complex craniofacial fractures presents significant challenges. Throughout the years, several materials have been used for orbital reconstruction, taking into account factors such as their durability, compatibility with living tissue, cost efficiency, safety, and capacity to be adjusted during surgery. Nevertheless, a consensus has not yet been reached on the optimal material for orbital restoration.

Over the past two decades, the CICECO-hub scientists have devoted substantial efforts to advancing bioactive inorganic materials based on calcium phosphates and alkali-free bioactive glasses. A key focus has been the deliberate incorporation of therapeutic ions like Mg, Sr, Zn, Mn, or Ga to enhance osteointegration and vascularization, confer antioxidant properties, and impart antimicrobial effects, marking significant contributions to the field of biomaterials and bone tissue engineering. Such an approach is expected to circumvent the uncertainties posed by methods relying on growth factors, such as bone morphogenetic proteins, parathyroid hormone, and platelet-rich plasma, along with their associated high costs and potential adverse side effects.
