In vitro ion adsorption and cytocompatibility of dicalcium phosphate ceramics

Abstract Background In vitro cell testing of degradable bioceramics such as brushite or monetite is often challenging due to the ion release into or adsorption from the culture medium. These ionic changes are then mostly responsible for cell proliferation and activity, which prohibits the investigat...
