Study of Phosphocalcic Glasses from SiO2-CaO-P2O5 System with and Without Silver II. The bioactivity analysis by FTIR, SEM methods and microbiological study of silver-doped glasses

The study in vitro of the glass powders bioactivity was performed by soaking them in simulated body fluid for 3 to 21 days at a temperature of 37 C and pH = 7.20. The synthesis de novo of hydroxyapatite, post soaking was confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The study of the antimicrobial activity was performed by microbiological examination on two strains of pathogenic bacteria involved in postoperative nosocomial infections.
