3D printing-based technologies can fabricate scaffolds offer great precision to control internal architecture and print complicated structures based upon the defect site. However, the materials used in the direct printing are restricted depending on the printing technology used and the indirect one can overcome this limitation. In the present study, indirect 3D printing approach was used to develop bone scaffolds from polylactic acid/ polycaprolactone/ hydroxyapatite (PLA/PCL/HA) composites. Casting of the composite suspensions was done into a dissolvable 3D printed negative mold, in order to achieve simultaneous macro- and micro-porous composites, using freeze drying/particle leaching method. To evaluate morphology, functional groups, and elemental analysis of the scaffolds, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were respectively used. Scaffolds' porosity was measured with the aid of liquid replacement technique. Also, the mechanical strength of scaffolds was examined by compression test and measuring the compressive modulus Considering the microstructure, porosity and pore size as well as mechanical property, the scaffold composed of PLA/PCL 70/30 w/w and 35% HA was more favorable. The PLA/PCL/HA 70/30-35% scaffold presented a porosity of 77%, an average pore size of 160 μm, and Young's modulus of 1.35 MPa. Cell adhesion, viability and mineral deposits formation for PLA/PCL/HA scaffolds at PLA/PCL ratios of 70/30, 50/50 and 30/70 and the fixed amount of HA (35%) were also studied in vitro by the means of MG63 cells. The cytotoxicity assessment showed that the cells could be viable and proliferate on the scaffolds. The results indicated that composite scaffold with the PLA/PCL weight ratio of70/30 accomplished more favorable properties in terms of biocompatibility, viability, and osteoinduction property.
基于 3D 打印的技术可以制造出支架,能够非常精确地控制内部结构,并根据缺陷部位打印复杂结构。然而,由于受到所使用的打印技术的限制,直接打印所使用的材料是有限的,而间接打印可以克服这一限制。在本研究中,使用间接 3D 打印方法从聚乳酸/聚己内酯/羟基磷灰石(PLA/PCL/HA)复合材料中开发出骨支架。将复合材料悬浮液浇铸到可溶解的 3D 打印负模具中,以使用冷冻干燥/颗粒浸出法同时获得宏观和微观多孔复合材料。为了评估支架的形态、官能团和元素分析,分别使用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、傅里叶变换红外(FTIR)和能谱(EDS)。使用液体置换技术测量支架的孔隙率。此外,还通过压缩试验和测量压缩模量来检查支架的机械强度。考虑到微观结构、孔隙率和孔径以及机械性能,由 PLA/PCL 70/30 w/w 和 35%HA 组成的支架更为理想。PLA/PCL/HA 70/30-35%支架具有 77%的孔隙率、160μm 的平均孔径和 1.35MPa 的杨氏模量。通过 MG63 细胞,还在体外研究了 PLA/PCL 比例为 70/30、50/50 和 30/70 以及固定 HA(35%)含量的 PLA/PCL/HA 支架的细胞黏附、活力和矿化沉积形成。细胞毒性评估表明,细胞可以在支架上存活和增殖。结果表明,在生物相容性、活力和成骨诱导特性方面,具有 PLA/PCL 重量比为 70/30 的复合支架具有更优异的性能。
