In vitro bioactivity of the prepared composites was evaluated in 1.5 simulated body fluid (1.5 SBF) in static conditions. The obtained samples before and after in vitro tests were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The changes in 1.5 SBF solutions after soaking the samples were evaluated by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). MG63 osteosarcoma cells were used for the biological experiments. The obtained experimental data proved that the synthesized composites exhibit excellent in vitro bioactivity.enArticle
