	abstract = {The biocompatibility and osteoconductive potential of Bonelike{\textregistered} and Bonelike{\textregistered}/PLGA hybrid materials were evaluated through subcutaneous and tibiae implantations for a 4 week period. Qualitative histology was performed to evaluate new bone formation and characterise bone-implant interface and results showed that Bonelike{\textregistered}/PLGA hybrid materials promote extensive bone growth. After the 4 week implantation period, Bonelike{\textregistered} resorption was recognized, which may be due to the presence of resorbable β and α-tricalcium phosphate phases.},

	abstract = {In order to evaluate how the characteristics of starting HA powders affect their dispersion ability, several tests were made, including particle size distribution, particle morphology (SEM) and rheological measurements of the suspensions. To enable the preparation of concentrated suspensions as high as possible, the influence of deagglomeration procedure on rheological behaviour of hydroxyapatite aqueous suspensions was evaluated. The results revealed significant differences in the dispersing ability of the powders and on the maximum achievable solids loading. In fact, the maximum solids volume fraction that was possible to incorporate in the initial suspension of HA                        R was only 35-vol.\%, while with the HA
                        S it has been possible to start from 45-vol.\% suspensions. Ball milling revealed to be more efficient than planetary milling in the preparation of HA
                        R suspensions, and enabled to achieve a maximum solids volume fraction of 45-vol.\% at the end of long milling period, which included successive incremental additions of powder. The powder HA
                        S exhibited a much better dispersing ability, enabling the preparation of 60-vol.\% solids only after two hours of planetary milling.

	abstract = {Porous hydroxyapatite was prepared in order to be used as a drug carrier and promote bone ingrowth. For this purpose, the microstructure should have interconnective pores and micro as well as macro porosity, for bone cell adhesion and bone ingrowth. The porous hydroxyapatite prepared by the burn-out method exhibits all these features. For measuring porosity, SEM analysis, mercury intrusion porosimetry and BET were used. FT-IR and XRD analysis revealed that only hydroxyapatite phase was present, being this result similar to the one found for dense samples. The morphology obtained appears to be well adapted to bone growth and drug adsorption.},

                        2O), which has significant potential for being used as an alloplastic bone graft. Experiments were carried out by immersing granule samples for a period up to 90 days in Trisbuffer solution at pH 7.4, in the presence and absence of a foetal bovine serum (FBS). The release of calcium, phosphorus, and potassium ions as well as the amount of protein adsorbed was followed by several techniques. The results obtained seem to indicate that the adsorption of proteins on the surface of the material, although causing an initial delay in the degradation, does not hamper the ionic exchange and therefore it is not a barrier for the degradation of the glass ceramic.
