Abstract

Background: Calcium hydroxide is a material that is widely used in pulp capping treatment. However, the use of this material causes tunnel defects due to the large absorption of calcium. This can be manipulated by creating an encapsulation formula. Stichopus hermanii is a marine biota that contains lots of hyaluronic acid and can be used as an encapsulation material which also plays a role in cell regeneration. The characteristics of the microencapsulated calcium hydroxide preparation with Stichopus hermanii as pulp capping material through an in vitro study.Method: Stichopus hermanii was made freeze dry and dissolved with 1% acetic acid to obtain a gel concentration of 0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.8%. Next, calcium hydroxide powder is added with a ratio of 1: 6 and tripolyphospate (TPP) is added as a cross-linker agent and the mixture is stirred until homogeneous. The test material formed was subjected to SEM, PSA and cytotoxicity tests.Result: The cytotoxicity test showed that all of the test materials (0.2%; 0.4%; 0.8%) were not toxic, especially at a concentration of 0.2%. The PSA test results indicate that this encapsulation shows the micro particle size formed. The SEM test shows a rough and stringy surface shape, where at a concentration of 0.2%, a smoother morphological formation is found.Conclusion: The in vitro study showed that the microencapsulation of calcium hydroxide with Stichopus hermanii as a pulp capping material showed the characteristics of the non-toxic material, the micro size and the rough and fibrous surface shape.

Abstract

Background: Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) is graft material contained HA and TCP. Tegilarca granosa shell is a natural source that may converted into BCP. This study aims to determine the composition and cytotoxicity of BCP synthesized from Tegilarca granosa shell used various hydrothermal hours and to evaluate the mechanical properties of BCP scaffold. Methods: Tegilarca granosa shell was converted into BCP using hydrothermal method at 200˚C for 6h (Group 1); 9h (Group 2); and 12h (Group 3). The composition was determined by XRD and the cell viability were evaluated using MTT Assays. Each group was added with 20% gelatin ratio 50:50 (w/v) and freeze-dried to form scaffold. Scaffolds (Ø6mm x 4mm) were prepared for diametral tensile strength (DTS) test (n=6) and scaffolds (Ø7mm x 11mm) were used for compressive strength (CS) test (n=6). All data were analyzed using Kruskall-Wallis followed by Mann-Whitney test. Results: The composition of BCP (HA/ TCP) at Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 were 81.80%/14,10%; 87%/6%; and 72%/21%. The cell viabilities were good for all groups. The DTS and CS test showed there was a significant difference between Group 1 and Group 3 scaffold, meanwhile there was no significant differences between Group 2 and Group 3 scaffold. Group 3 scaffold showed the highest DTS and CS, 6.921 MPa and 1,233 MPa. Conclusion: The BCP composition were depent on hydrothermal hours. Although all scaffold groups were non-toxic, but BCP scaffold synthesized from Tegilarca granosa shell using hydrothermal for 12 hours showed the highest mechanical properties.
