## Abstract Implant success requires a direct bond between bone and implant surface. Bioinert implants, such as titanium alloys, are commonly plasma‐spray–coated with a bone‐bonding, bioactive material such as hydroxyapatite. Such coatings tend to be chemically and topographically inhomogeneous wit

Abstract
Bioactive ceramics have interesting properties from the biological standpoint, but their effects on cellular events remain partially unknown. In the current work, we investigated cellular viability, proliferation, and metabolic activity of rat primary osteoblasts in contact with four different samples: type I collagen, bioactive glass‐coated collagen (GC), and both samples submitted to immersion for 5 days in a simulated body fluid. The bioactive glass coating was obtained from a sol‐gel process. The cell viability, the alkaline phosphate, the collagen secretion, and the nitric oxide production by osteoblast were measured after 72 h of incubation in the presence of the samples. The GC that was immersed for 5 days in a simulated body fluid solution showed an increase in osteoblast viability and proliferation when it was compared with control and the other samples. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
