Abstract
A novel SiO2-P2O5-CaO-SrO-Ag2O bioactive glass containing from 0 to 10 mol% Ag2O was produced via the sol-gel method. The influence of silver content on in vitro hydroxyapatite (HA) formation, antibacterial and cell viability properties were investigated. The apatite shape and structure were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The results...
