Preparation of Bifunctional Orthosilicophosphate MgO‐CaO‐ZnO‐P2O5‐SiO2 Glasses: in vitro Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity and Osteoblast Gene Expression Behavior

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bifunctional ZnO‐containing orthosilicophosphate glasses (SPGs) composed mainly of orthotetrahedral groups with the unique glass network structure without long‐chain units are prepared via melt‐quenching. The glasses exhibit excellent antibacterial activity and upregulate the expression of osteogenic markers by releasing inorganic ions.
