Abstract

In this paper, the stability of magnesium-doped hydroxyapatite/chitosan (MHC) suspension obtained with the sol-gel approach was evaluated using nondestructive ultrasound measurements. The MHC coatings obtained by the spin-coating technique were characterized before and after immersion for 7 and 14 days, respectively, in Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium (DMEM) by scanning electron microscopy, equipped with an EDAX detector. Also, the functional groups present on the MHC coatings surface were analyzed with the aid of attenuated total reflection (ATR) Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The surface microstructure was evaluated using two commentary techniques, namely atomic force microscopy (AFM) and metallographic microscopy (MM). The influence of immersion in DMEM on the biological properties was studied with in vitro studies using primary osteoblast and HCT-8 cell lines. Our results revealed that both surface morphology and chemical composition of the MHC coatings allow rapid development of a new apatite layer on their surface after immersion in DMEM. Preliminary in vitro biological studies underlined the noncytotoxic effect of the studied samples on the proliferation of primary osteoblast and HCT-8 cell lines, which makes them a promising candidate for applications in fields such as orthopedics or dentistry. The antifungal assay of the MHC coatings was assessed using Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and their results showed a good inhibitory effect. The coatings made on the basis of the MHC composite could contribute to increasing the degree of success of implants by decreasing the risk of infections and postoperative inflammation.
