## Abstract The apatiteβforming ability of titania gels with different structures has been investigated in a simulated body fluid with ion concentrations nearly equal to those of human blood plasma. Titania gels with an amorphous structure or with an anatase or rutile structure were prepared by the
## Abstract Canasite glassβceramics were modified by either increasing the concentration of calcium in the glass, or by the addition of P~2~O~5~. Samples of these novel materials were placed in simulated body fluid (SBF), along with a control material (commercial canasite), for periods ranging from
It has been shown that the prerequisite for glasses and glass-ceramics to bond to living bone is the formation of a layer of biologically active bonelike apatite on their surfaces. The hydrated silica formed on the surfaces of glasses and glass-ceramics plays an important role in nucleating the apat
Wollastonite/tricalcium phosphate composites were prepared and immersed in SBF for various periods to investigate the apatite-formation mechanism on their surfaces. Surface morphologies and composition before and after immersion were analyzed by SEM and EDS technologies. The concentration changes of
