Chemico-physical properties of hyaluronan-based spongesE Milella
PASTIS CNRSM, Biomaterials Unit, SS 7 Appia km 7 300, Brindisi, Italy
J Biomed Mater Res 52:695-700. 2000..The deterioration of the pore walls and the presence of craters increased with time and, after 3 days, the phenomena were present also in the section...
Preparation and characterisation of titania/hydroxyapatite composite coatings obtained by sol-gel processE Milella
Biomaterials Unit, Centro Nazionale per la Ricerca e Sviluppo Materiali, PASTIS CNRSM, Brindisi, Italy
Biomaterials 22:1425-31. 2001..Adhesion tests were also performed. These analyses showed that the obtained coating was chemically clean, homogeneous, rough, porous, with a low thickness and well-defined phase composition as well as a good adhesion to the substrate...
The influence of titania/hydroxyapatite composite coatings on in vitro osteoblasts behaviourP A Ramires
PASTIS-CNRSM, Biomaterial Unit, Brindisi, Italy
Biomaterials 22:1467-74. 2001..TiO2/HA coatings resulted to be bioactive owing to the presence of hydroxyl groups detected on their surface that promote the calcium and phosphate precipitation and improve the interactions with osteoblastic cells...
Surface and biological evaluation of hydroxyapatite-based coatings on titanium deposited by different techniquesC Massaro
PASTIS-CNRSM, Biomaterial Unit, SS7 Appia km 7+300, Brindisi, Italy
J Biomed Mater Res 58:651-7. 2001..The sol-gel coating promotes higher cell growth, greater alkaline phosphatase activity, and greater osteocalcin production compared to the sputtered and plasma-sprayed coatings...
Physico-chemical properties and degradability of non-woven hyaluronan benzylic esters as tissue engineering scaffoldsE Milella
PASTIS CNRSM, Biomaterials Unit, Brindisi, Italy
Biomaterials 23:1053-63. 2002..After 11 days, some fragments, constituted by hyaluronic acid with a molecular weight of 23,000 Da became soluble in the medium. No oligomer was detected...
Poly(L-lactide)acid/alginate composite membranes for guided tissue regenerationE Milella
PASTIS-CNRSM S.C.p.A, Biomaterials Unit, SS 7 Appia km 7+300, 72100 Brindisi, Italy
J Biomed Mater Res 57:248-57. 2001..The obtained membrane acted as a barrier to the passage of S. mutans bacteria and showed to promote a lower bacterial adhesion with respect to commercial GTR membranes...
Physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties of commercial membranes for GTRE Milella
PASTIS CNRSM, Biomaterials Unit, SS 7 Appia km 7 300, 72100 Brindisi, Italy
J Biomed Mater Res 58:427-35. 2001..On the contrary, they act as a barrier to the passage of the gingivial cells and to S. mutans bacteria...
Three-dimensional reconstruction of confocal laser microscopy images to study the behaviour of osteoblastic cells grown on biomaterialsP A Ramires
PASTIS CNRSM, Biomaterials Unit, Brindisi, Italy
Biomaterials 23:397-406. 2002..Cell aggregation is an early and critical event leading to cell differentiation and mineralization process and could be a first signal of the tendency of TiO2/HA coating to stimulate cell differentiation...
