Desenvolvimento de materiais híbridos à base de celulose bacteriana e/ou hidroxiapatita dopados com estrôncio

Abstract

Hybrid materials are widely used for their unique properties that have provided advances in science. The water formed from the combination of combination of bacterial cellulose (BC) and hydroxyapatite (CaHA) has been shown to be a promising material, especially for bone repair. The insertion of strontium (Sr) in arrays of CB and CB / Caha was chosen in this work due to this metal has properties similar to calcium, having a similar action in the human body related to bone remodeling mechanisms. In this context, this paper proposes to obtain water materials to bacterial cellulose-based and / or hydroxyapatite, doped with strontium ions, using three different synthesis routes. The first route consists in forming a water equipment CB / CaHA where hydroxyapatite is formed by calcium phosphate CaHA, followed by batch adsorption of Sr ions, which form the hybrid (CB / CaHA / Sr). In the second synthesis route hybrid is composed of strontium apatite and CB (CB / srap) through CB immersion cycles dibasic sodium phosphate solution and strontium chloride solution. The third synthesis route consists of strontium insertion into the bacterial culture medium which facilitates the formation of a hybrid CB / Sr by co-condensation. The three biomaterials produced were evaluated and compared for the amount absorbed from Sr²⁺ and as the elution process. The adsorbed amount of Sr biomaterials in the best conditions followed the following order: CB / SRAP> CB / CaHA / Sr> CB / Sr, which retained 237.31; 29.91; 26,25 mg per g of Sr material, respectively. CB / CaHA / Sr had the fastest release of Sr, about 80.08% Sr desorbed after 26 h. Was obtained adsorption isotherm of the material balance and experimental data have been described by Mangmuir model. We also evaluated some parameters on the adsorption capacity: temperature and pH. The other two materials CB / Sr and CB / PAES. Strontium released after 26 hours in the amount of 50.64% and 15.76% respectively. In the production of CB / Sr was observed that compared to a control sample of BC (without the addition of strontium), the culture medium, there is a loss of efficiency in terms of mass, suggesting that Sr cause decrease in the production of CB , which was corroborated by falling sugar consumption by the microorganism. The materials were characterized using FTIR techniques, SEM, BET, TGA, determination of porosity and swelling degree in order to understand the morphology and biopolymer / metal interaction. From that results could be inferred that the biomaterials produced are able to adsorb the strontium, showing a distinct profile of adsorption / desorption for each material, involving both fissorção mechanisms.
