To follow the design strategy of traditional biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic, in the present study, strontium-doped biphasic calcium phosphate bone cement (Sr-BCPC) composites comprising Sr-β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP)/Sr-hydroxyapatite (HAP) had been prepared for the first time using Sr x -β-TCP/tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP) as a cement powder and diluted phosphoric acid as a cement liquid. The phase composition, setting time, compressive strength, washout resistance, in vitro degradation rate, microstructure evolutions, hydration dynamics and cytotoxicity of Sr-BCPC at various Sr contents were intensively investigated. It was found that the final cement product was composed of entangled Sr-HAP nano-needles and cobblestone-like Sr-β-TCP sub-micron particles, and the weight percentages in the final cement product after hydration in simulated body fluid for 24 h were in the ranges of 60 wt%-70 wt% Sr-HAP and 30 wt%-40 wt% Sr-β-TCP, respectively. Sr and the concentration of Sr exhibit significant effects on the phase compositions, compressive strength, setting time, in vitro degradation rate and cytotoxicity of the biphasic bone cement. In particular, the degradation rate increased considerably with the increase of the Sr-β-TCP phase. It is anticipated that the introduction of the 'biphasic' design into calcium phosphate bone cements is an effective strategy to improve their degradation properties.

D008855	Microscopy, Electron, Scanning	Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D001843	Bone Cements	Adhesives used to fix prosthetic devices to bones and to cement bone to bone in difficult fractures. Synthetic resins are commonly used as cements. A mixture of monocalcium phosphate, monohydrate, alpha-tricalcium phosphate, and calcium carbonate with a sodium phosphate solution is also a useful bone paste.

D016475	3T3 Cells	Cell lines whose original growing procedure consisted being transferred (T) every 3 days and plated at 300,000 cells per plate (J Cell Biol 17:299-313, 1963). Lines have been developed using several different strains of mice. Tissues are usually fibroblasts derived from mouse embryos but other types and sources have been developed as well. The 3T3 lines are valuable in vitro host systems for oncogenic virus transformation studies, since 3T3 cells possess a high sensitivity to CONTACT INHIBITION.	3T3 Cell,Cell, 3T3,Cells, 3T3
