Abstract

Large bone defects caused by congenital deformities and acquired accidents are increasing day by day. A large number of patients mainly rely on artificial bone for repair. However, artificial bone cannot fully imitate the structure and composition of human bone, resulting in a large gap with autologous bone function. Therefore, this article proposes a continuous preparation method for inorganic/organic biphasic composite gradient biomimetic bulk bone scaffolds. First, a controllable gradient hybrid forming platform for inorganic/organic dual-phase biomaterials was constructed, and the feeding control strategy was studied to achieve precise control of the feeding of sodium alginate/gelatin composite organic materials and hydroxyapatite inorganic materials. The speed is, respectively, sent from the corresponding feeding nozzle to the mixing chamber to realize the uniform mixing of the biphasic material and the extrusion of the composite material, and the inorganic/organic biphasic composite gradient biomimetic bone scaffold with gradual structure and composition is prepared. Second, to prove the superiority of the preparation method, the physicochemical and biological properties of the prepared scaffolds were evaluated. The test results showed that the morphological characteristics of the biphasic composite gradient bone scaffold showed good microscopic porosity and the structure and composition showed gradients. The mechanical properties are close to that of human bone tissue and in vitro cell experiments show that the scaffold has good biocompatibility and bioactivity. In conclusion, this article provides a new type of bone scaffold preparation technology and equipment for the field of tissue engineering, which has research value and application prospects.
