Biologically synthesized titanium oxide nanostructures combined with morphogenetic protein as wound healing agent in the femoral fracture after surgery

Abstract

The aim of the present study is to develop novel approach for the green synthesis of titanium oxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) using Eichhornia crassipes extract and calcined at different temperatures for evaluate the wound healing activity in the femoral fracture. The synthesized TiO2 are formed different (plate and rod-like) nanostructures at various calcination temperatures. These samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Microscopic studies of TiO2 NPs revealed that the synthesized TiO2 NPs are formed well-defined rod-like structures at 400 °C with size ranged from 200 nm to 500 nm. The characterized plate and rod-like TiO2 NPs are combined with human morphogenetic protein (HbMP) to improving its wound healing activity and osteoblast properties on femoral fractures. The biocompatibility was tested by using human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) cells and antibacterial efficacy analyzed using human pathogenica bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli through agar well diffusion assay. The green synthesized rod-like TiO2 NPs combined with HbMP has been exhibited effective bone fusion behaviors with biomechanical properties and also improved antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria. From this study results, it is suggested that green synthesized TiO2NPs could be used effectively in biomedical application.
