Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy Analysis of Porous beta-TCP Bioceramics after Implantation into Femur.
In this paper, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and element ratio of implanted bioceramic, interface and rabbit femur when the bioceramic implanted into femur were measured by two different scan electron microscopy (SEM) EDXA modes. The changes of element ratio and components of materials and interface implanted into femur were compared. Thorough studies were made on the transformation of TCP from lifeless materials into living bones after implantation, by using SEM-EDXA, Raman spectra and infrared spectra. These results provided rich evidence for understanding biodegration and bone bonding mechanism of calcium phosphate bioceramics.
