Fe/Zn-modified tricalcium phosphate (TCP) biomaterials: preparation and biological properties.

ABSTRACT: Bone repairing materials play an essential role in the repair treatment of bone defects. The presence of calcium phosphate invertebrates is of significance for bone repairing processes. However, the mechanical properties and osteogenic activities of many current calcium phosphate materials are not ideal, which limit their biological applications. Therefore, it is an effective alternative strategy to study the modification of calcium phosphate biomaterials to address these limitations. In this research, in order to enhance the biological performance of tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), metal species (Fe and Zn) modified β-TCP materials through the co-precipitation method were successfully developed. The physical, chemical and biological properties of the binary composites were carefully studied
