Characterization of Bioceramics from Anadara Granosa for Bone Substitute Material

Anadara granosa (Ag) is a marine bivalve cockles which can be found in the tidal mudflats bordering the coastal region of many South East Asian countries particularly Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. This research is aim to investigate the potential of Malaysian cockle (Anadara Granosa) shell to...

This research is aim to investigate the potential of Malaysian cockle (Anadara Granosa) shell to be used as bone substitute material.

Sintering of HAP-Anadara granosa (HAP-Ag) bioceramic samples at 700°C resulted in highest compressive strength without the effect of decomposition.

With the compressive strengths comparable to human bone, HAP-Ag is suggested to be used for injectable bone filler and bone graft for non-load bearing bone such as cervical and lumbar bone. 2012-12-31T04:46:07Z 2012-12-31T04:46:07Z 2012-12-31 Conference Paper http://ddms.usim.edu.my/handle/123456789/6116 en
