Bone implant substitutes from synthetic polymer and reduced graphene oxide: Current perspective
In the present work, bone implant materials (BIM) were produced, in sheet form which comprises epoxy resin (synthetic polymer) (ER), calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and reduced graphene oxide (R-GO), by open mold method, for the possibility uses in bone tissue engineering. The developed BIM was analyzed for its physico-chemical, mechanical, bioactivity test, antimicrobial study, and biocompatibility. The BIM had excellent mechanical properties such as tensile strength (194.44 + 0.21 MPa), flexural strength (278.76 + 0.41 MPa), and water absorption (02.61 + 0.24%). A pore size distribution study using the HR-SEM has proved the 180 and 255 μm average pore was observed in the BIM structure. The Bioactivity test of BIM was examined after being immersed in a simulated body fluids (SBF) solution. The result of BIM formed an excellent deposition of bone tube apatite crystals. High-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM) morphology of the bone tube apatite crystals revealed the diameter size in the range from 100 ± 159 to 210 ± 188 nm. BIM has excellent antimicrobial characteristics against E. coli (8.75 + 0.06 mm) and S. aureus (9.82 + 0.08 mm). The biocompatibility of the study MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethyl) thiazol-2-yl-2, 5-dimethyl tetrazolium bromide) assay using the MG-63 (human osteoblast cell line) has proven to be the 78% viable cell presence in BIM. After receiving the necessary approval, the scaffold with the required strength and biocompatibility could be tested as a bone implant material in large animals.
