Nanocomposite polymer scaffolds for tissue engineering were prepared using leaching method. As a porogen there were used phosphate salts with different grain size (100-400 μm). Nanocomposite materials based on polylactide (PL/DLA) containing 2 wt% of ceramic bioactive nanoadditives (SiO_2) were prepared. The nanoadditive was characterized by dynamic light scatering (DLS) (size) and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (specific surface area) methods. Morphology of the nanoparticles was observed using the transmission electron microscopy. The optimal concentration of the nanofiller in the polymer matrix was evaluated on the basis of in vitro tests of the nanocomposite foils contacted with osteoblast-like human cells of MG63 line. The morphology and porosity of the scaffold after leaching was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy and hydrostatic weighing. The bioactivity test made on the scaffolds demonstrated ability to nucleation of apatite structure on the material.

Polymer-based nanocomposites containing biocompatible and bioactive nanocomponents seem to be excellent materials that could be used in many biomedical applications. The aim of this study was biological evaluation of resorbable polymer-based nanocomposites (PLA, PCL) and their modifications with ceramic nanoparticles (silica - SiO_2, montmorillonite - MMT) or carbon nanotubes. The nanocomposites were seeded with the human osteoblast-like MG 63 cells. After 1, 3 and 7 days of incubation, Trypan blue exclusion test was used to determine the viability and number of cells. The cell population density depending on incubation time and cell population doubling time was calculated. The cell proliferation abilities on the all applied nanocomposites and on control material (polystyrene cell culture plate) were also compared. The number of cells growing on the nanocomposite surfaces increased with the incubation time. The cell viability was not decreased for all applied materials during the entire study (97-100%). The ceramic nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes modified the bone cell growth and proliferation rate. Results of this study confirm that all types of the nanocomposites are appropriate to the growing and proliferation of human osteoblast-like cells.
