Silicon, calcium, sodium and phosphorus, the elements contained in bioactive glass, are released, but only if the proper mixture is used. Minerals are then added to the surrounding surfaces to form a hydroxyl apatite(HA) layer that resembles the mineral structure of the bone tissue. At the same time, this facilitates regeneration of bony tissue and this contributes towards accelerating the healing process. 4, record 1, English, - bioactive%20glass

Le Bioglass 45S5 de Hench, qui contient en plus des 3 composantes de nos verres du phosphore, est connu pour être actuellement le bioverre le plus actif. Il a été étudié dans les mêmes conditions comme élément de comparaison. À sa surface, de l'apatite cristallisée commence à se former au bout de 12 heures. Ce verre est donc légèrement plus bioactif que les composés du système ternaire étudié. 5, record 1, French, - bioverre
