Abstract:
Objective To comparatively investigate the adhesive capabilities of sodium alginate and guar gum as bone adhesives.Methods The adhesive capabilities were analysed and discussed by measuring their kinetic viscosities,solidification time and the reaction with calcium ions.Results Guar gum had higher kinetic viscosity and could fit to the supply of both ion calcium and non-ion calcium for the bone cure,but its capability of solidification need to be improved.Sodium alginate had higher solubility and its solidification could be finished in short time,but it had lower viscosity and fit only to the non-ion calcium supply.Conclusion Sodium alginate and guar gum are considered to be the potential natural materials of the bone adhesives.
