1. Which calcium phosphate compounds can and cannot be used for spinal fusion?
2. Do you know where you can find the solubility values at 25°C for 45s5 glass ceramics and apatite-wolastonite? Why are these indicators not available anywhere?
Thank you!

Synthetic HA: Synthetic HA is made by combining calcium and phosphate in specific ratios and then heating and milling the mixture to create a fine powder. Synthetic HA can be produced with a range of particle sizes and surface chemistries to optimize its biocompatibility and bone integration properties. Bioceramic HA: Bioceramic HA is a type of synthetic HA that has been modified to have specific mechanical and biological properties. Bioceramic HA can be produced with different porosities, crystallinities, and surface chemistries to optimize its performance in spinal fusion surgeries. Natural HA: Natural HA is derived from bovine or human bone and has a similar chemical composition to synthetic HA. Natural HA can be processed into different forms, such as granules or blocks, and can be used as a bone graft substitute or as a coating on spinal implants.
There are several types of HA that can be used in spinal fusion surgeries, including:
The specific type of HA used in spinal fusion surgeries will depend on a variety of factors, including the patient's medical history, the type of spinal injury or condition being treated, and the surgeon's preferences and experience.
