In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of cerium and silver co-substituted bioglass
coatings are reported. First, a SiO 2–P 2 O 5–CaO–Na 2 O-type bioglass containing 3 mol …

The proposal of this research activity is to produce sol-gel-derived quaternary bioactive
glass (SiO 2–P 2 O5–CaO–Na 2 O) thin films, co-doped with europium and silver, by two …

The current study presents a comparison within the framework of 45S5 Bioglass®
composition, between two types of coatings, achieved by physical or chemical means. The …

Due to the fact of their ability to bond with human's hard tissue, bioglasses have gained
interest in the biomedical field with certain purposes regarding their usage in the …

The current study reports the use of silver (Ag) and samarium (Sm) as dopants to improve
the properties of standard bioglass in terms of biological performance. This experiment …

Biofilm-related implant infections pose a substantial threat to patients, leading to
inflammation in the surrounding tissue, and often resulting in implant loss and the necessity …

Highly bioactive glass coatings were successfully achieved by applying a newly developed
bioactive glass layer having a low Ca/P ratio on a ZrO 2-3% Y 2 O 3 ceramic substrate. The …

The purpose of this work was to propose and evaluate a new composition for a bioactive
glass-ceramic starting from the well-known 45S5 commercial product. Thus, we developed a …

Achieving the stable osteointegration of prosthetic implants is one of the great challenges of
modern orthopedic surgery. The fixation of ceramic acetabular cups of hip joint prostheses is …

Bioactive glasses, discovered by Hench and co-workers at the end of the 1960s, are among
the most promising biomaterials for bone repair and reconstruction, mainly thanks to their …
