Institute of Solid State Physics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences,1784 Sofia, Bulgaria, 72 Tzarigradsko Chaussee blvd.

The aim of the proposed project is the development of novel technology based on a process of laser-liquid-solid-interaction (LLSI) in simulated body fluids (SBF) and its

optimisation as a model of in vitro system for the controllable production of samples with hierarchically organized micro and

nanometer scale surfaces, typical for nature. The process of LLSI is based on simultaneously microengineering

of beforehand nanostructured substrate and growth of a layer of hydroxyapatite (HA) on the surface.

The HAP layer will be used as implant coatings as well as a non viral carrier in the gene therapy of certain bone pathologies.

For the implementation of the project the groupe is closely cooperated with a SME (Pulslight LTD, Sofia), ensures the laser system (copper bromide pulsed laser, equipped with a precise scanning system) necessary for the realization

of the LLSI technology.

METHOD FOR HYDROXYAPATITE GROWTH INDUCED BY THE PROCESS OF

LASER-LIQUID-SOLID INTERACTION (LLSI)

• The method of LLSI process employs a deposition system and a process, which allows interaction between a scanning laser beam and a liquid precursor solution (simulated body fluid, SBF), and also simultaneous laser illumination of the substrate during the laser-liquid interaction, thereby stimulating the nucleation and growth of hydroxyapatite (HA).

• Variously modified surfaces serve as substrates for the HA growth, induced by a laser-liquid-solid interaction process.

LASER PARAMETERS:

CuBr (copper bromide) laser 1 = 511 nm 2 = 578 nm

P = 4.5 W (average laser power) = 35 ns (pulse duration)d = 50 m (diameter of laser spot)f = 1 – 19000 Hz (repetition rate)N = 1 – 19000 pulses/min v = 1 – 2000 mm/s (velocity of scanner)

In the LLSI processing technique external radiation source is used. It is a pulsedcopper bromide vapor laser in visible wavelengths (with energy of the lasertransition 2.4 eV and 2.1 eV for 511 nm - green and for 578 nm yellow linerespectively).

PS has been shown to be an excellent candidate biomaterial, following studies establishing its biostability and non-toxicity. These favourable properties, coupled with the ease of its topographical manipulation, make it an ideal material for the growth of hydroxyapatite (HA) for use as an artificial bone material. The method

includes surface modification by electrochemical and laser induced chemical

The method includes surface modification of the substrates by their coating with ECM proteins - to promote interactions with bone-forming cells. ECM was observed to act as a matrix for the growth of HA and leads to more homogeneous layer distribution on the surface and a better arranged structure.

• Abstract : A small French firm has created a new bioelectronic technology able to identify with precision the risk of thrombosis from three electrochemical components: a consumable made of a microchip equipped with silicon sensors and a container (capacity equal to a few milliliters), a microchip reader, and a data processing unit (software + computer). The firm is also specializes in bioelectronic techniques for aqueous environment.

• Base is a start-up developing a biochip (microsystem technology) for the plasma measurement. The methodology consist in the simultaneous measurement of tree essential electro-chemical parameters to give a fine position on 3 axes or 3D of the biological field. The use of the future biochip will give real time measurement at low cost.
