Abstract
In this work sodium alginate and nano-bioactive glass (NBG) were used to create a hydrogel for tissue regeneration. Initially, a pure alginate hydrogel (ALG) and a nano-bioactive/alginate hydrogel (NBG/ALG) were created. The present approach is carried out to assess the performance of hydrogel after incorporating of NBG relative to the ALG-based hydrogel. The NBG was prepared using the sol-gel technique whereas the hydrogels were developed through chemical cross-linking. The crystalline behavior and functional groups of the NBG were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) with and without immersion in phosphate buffer saline (PBS). The reactivity of NBG was tested in-vitro using a PBS solution at different days of immersion. The hydrogels were characterized using XRD, pH, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FTIR, tensile, and swelling test. The NBG was tested in-vitro using PBS solution at different days. The NBG showed amorphous pattern with slight crystallinity. The in-vitro testing of NBG revealed increase in pH of PBS solution which decreases gradually. After immersion in PBS, slight peak shift was observed due to phosphate buffer. The SEM micrographs of pure ALG showed slight irregularities on the surface which removed after the incorporation of NBG with uniformly distributed nanoparticles. The addition of NBG in ALG reduced the tensile strength, elongation and elastic modulus relative to pure ALG. The NBG/ALG hydrogel swells relatively more as compared to pure ALG (5.49 vs. 3.95) % which decreased afterwards.
本研究采用海藻酸钠和纳米生物活性玻璃(NBG)制备组织再生水凝胶。首先,制备了一种纯海藻酸盐水凝胶(ALG)和一种纳米生物活性/海藻酸盐水凝胶(NBG/ALG)。目前的方法是用来评估掺入NBG后的水凝胶相对于基于alg的水凝胶的性能。NBG采用溶胶-凝胶法制备,水凝胶采用化学交联法制备。采用x射线衍射(XRD)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)研究了在磷酸盐缓冲盐水(PBS)中浸泡和未浸泡的NBG的结晶行为和官能团。在不同浸泡天数的PBS溶液中测试NBG的体外反应性。采用XRD、pH、扫描电镜(SEM)、红外光谱(FTIR)、拉伸和膨胀测试对水凝胶进行了表征。在不同时间用PBS溶液体外检测NBG。NBG呈非晶态,结晶度较低。NBG体外实验显示PBS溶液pH值升高,pH值逐渐降低。在PBS中浸泡后,由于磷酸盐缓冲液的作用,观察到轻微的峰移。纯ALG的SEM显微照片显示,在加入均匀分布的纳米颗粒后,ALG表面有轻微的不规则性。与纯ALG相比,NBG的加入降低了ALG的抗拉强度、伸长率和弹性模量。与纯ALG相比,NBG/ALG水凝胶相对更大(5.49% vs. 3.95) %,之后下降。
