Abstract:
A processing technique has been developed to prepare acellular bone collagen matrix (ABCM) and ABCM-PDLLA composite materials. The properties of these materials were characterized through several different methods. The histocompatibility of the materials were investigated by ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) test and healing the defection of New Zealand white rabbit bilateral radius. The spectroscopy indicated that the major inorganic and organic components of the bone blocks were carbonated hydroxyapatite and collagen respectively,and the fatty and cellular components were. completely eliminated. The test results also revealed that the materials had good mechanical property and well-internnected pore structure, and the addition of PDLLA increased the strength of the materials. The ELISA results demonstrated that the materials had low immunogenicity in short order, and the degree of immune response caused by ABCM was greater than that by ABCM-PDLLA. All of the grafts exhibited good osteoconductive ability and a new bone form after the creeping substitution. In conclusion, two kinds of materials with good histocompatibility have been prepared, and owing to its good mechanical performance and low immunogenicity, ABCM-PDLLA is a better candidate for bone substitute and bone tissue engineering scaffold when compared with single ABCM.
