1. 1. Suspensions of Calcium Phosphate : Interactions of milk proteins to hydroxyapatite

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

   Author : Ying Chen; [2023]
   Keywords : Calcium fortification; Milk proteins interactions; Colloid chemistry; Food technology; engineering and nutrition; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

   Abstract : Capolac is a product containing hydroxyapatite (HA) from Arla Food Ingredients, to be used for calcium fortification. The adsorption of casein and whey proteins onto the Capolac was investigated, aiming to solve the sedimentation problem of this insoluble calcium phosphate. READ MORE

3. 2. On-chip characterization of hydroxyapatite with different topography

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Maja Grape; [2022]
   Keywords : biomaterials; calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite; microfluidic systems;

   Abstract : Biomaterials are defined as non-viable materials whose functions strives to interact with biological systems, this makes biomaterials suitable for medical devices and applications. Biomaterials biological properties must be thoroughly investigated and evaluated in order to be approved for clinical usage. READ MORE

4. 3. Synchrotron X-ray Tomography Study of Bone-implant Integration

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Ornella Lohéac; [2021]
   Keywords : Bone-implant; Digital volume correlation; Micro-computed tomography; PEEK; Synchrotron; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

5. 4. Modeling of bone cell adhesion on bio-compatible surfaces, Modellering av bencellers adsorption på biokompatibla ytor

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Agnes Berg; Ebba Edqvist; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : A mathematical model is presented to describe osteoblast adsorption on calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite, focusing on adsorption rate, cell survival and protein pre-incubation time. The proposed model is fitted to experimental data sets by fine-tuning the parameters for adsorption rate and cell survival. READ MORE

6. 5. Development of polymer based composite filaments for 3D printing

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

   Author : Elin Åkerlund; [2019]
   Keywords : 3D-printing; fused deposition modeling FDM ; composite filaments; biocompatible materials; biodegradability; medical applications; scaffold materials; poly lactic acid PLA ; polycaprolactone PCL ; hydroxyapatite HA ; mechanical properties; thermal stability; chemical composition; morphological characterization; accelerated degradation study; polymer degradation behavior;

   Abstract : The relatively new and still growing field of 3D-printing has opened up the possibilities to manufacture patient-specific medical devices with high geometrical accuracy in a precise and quick manner. Additionally, biocompatible materials are a demand for all medical applications while biodegradability is of importance when developing scaffolds for tissue growth for instance. READ MORE
