## Abstract The calcium phosphate deposition on the surface of a bioactive glass‐ceramic of the MgO‐3CaO · P~2~O~5~‐SiO~2~ system during a 1‐week immersion in biological model fluids, was investigated through wettability studies. Two model fluids with chemical composition similar to the human blood

## Abstract Bioactive glasses react chemically with body fluids in a manner that is compatible with the repair processes of the tissues. This results in the formation of an interfacial bond between the glasses and living tissue. Bioactive glasses also stimulate bone–cell proliferation. This behavio
The aim of this work was to evaluate the in vitro degradation behaviour of a 45CaO-37P 2 O 5 -5MgO-13TiO 2 (mol.%) glass ceramic, under two different simulated physiological conditions: normal physiological pH 7.4, and pH 3.0, which was designed to simulate the acidic conditions produced by osteocla
The bioactivity, i.e., bone-bonding ability, of 26 glasses in the system Na 2 O-K 2 O-MgO-CaO-B 2 O 3 -P 2 O 5 -SiO 2 was studied in vivo. This investigation of bioactivity was performed to establish the compositional dependence of bioactivity, and enabled a model to be developed that describes the
