[0034] Example 4: Biocompatibility Experiment of Calcium Copper Phosphate Nanosheets
[0035] The copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared in Example 1 were sterilized in Co60, dispersed in 1640 complete medium (containing 10% serum and 1% double antibody), and extracted at 37°C for 72h to obtain sample extracts with concentration gradients of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, and 512 μg / mL. The extracts were sealed and stored in a refrigerator at 4°C for later use. Mouse fibroblasts (L929 cells) were cultured in 1640 complete medium in a 96-well plate until the cells adhered to the wall. The experimental group and the control group were divided into the following groups: Replace the original culture medium with the sample extract and 1640 complete culture medium, continue to culture the cells for 24 hours, add 50 μL of MTT to each well, incubate for 3 hours, discard the liquid in the wells, add 150 μL of DMSO to each well, measure the absorbance at 490 nm, and calculate the cell viability by the following formula: Cell viability (%) = [(A sample - A blank) / (A pair - A blank)] х 100%, where A sample is the absorbance of the sample to be tested, A blank is the absorbance of the culture medium, and A pair is the absorbance of the control group.
[0036] Figure 5 This is a biocompatibility diagram of L929 cells cultured with the extract of copper calcium phosphate nanosheets (sample 1). The results show that after 24 hours of culture of L929 cells with the extract, the cell survival rate decreased with the increase of the concentration of sample 1. When the extract concentration was less than 64 μg / mL, the cell survival rate was greater than 80%, showing good cell compatibility.
[0037] Example 5: Antibacterial activity of calcium copper phosphate nanosheets
[0038] An appropriate amount of the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared in Example 1 was sterilized in Co60. Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) were selected as model bacteria.
[0039] After activating the model bacteria with LB liquid medium, the activated bacteria were diluted to 1×10 5 The mixture was incubated in a 37°C incubator for 24 hours, and the bacterial solution was diluted 10 6 100 μL of the diluted bacterial solution was evenly spread on LB solid medium and cultured in a 37°C constant temperature incubator for 24 hours. The antibacterial activity of the sample against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was calculated by colony counting. No sample was added to the control group.
[0040] Figure 6The antibacterial test results of the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared in Example 1 show that the inhibition rate of copper calcium phosphate nanosheets against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus gradually increases with the increase of sample concentration. When the concentration is 128 μg / mL, the inhibition rate can reach 90%, showing a good antibacterial effect.
[0041] Example 6: Blood compatibility test of calcium copper phosphate nanosheets
[0042] An appropriate amount of the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared in Example 1 was placed in Co60 for sterilization.
[0043] Sterilized copper calcium phosphate nanosheet samples were extracted in normal saline at a mass-to-volume ratio of 0.1 g / mL for 72 hours and then filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane. Fresh whole blood was collected from rabbits (ear vein) and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 minutes to obtain red blood cells (RBCs), which were then diluted to 2% (v / v) with normal saline. Equal volumes of the RBC suspension and sample extract were added to centrifuge tubes. Positive controls (deionized water) and negative controls (normal saline) were set up and incubated in a 37°C incubator for 1 hour. After centrifugation, the supernatant was collected, and the absorbance at 540 nm was measured and photographed.
[0044] Figure 7 The blood compatibility results of the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets (Sample 1) prepared in Example 1 are shown. The quantitative analysis results in the figure show that the hemolysis rate of the nanomaterial is less than 5% when the hemolysis rate in the saline group is 0%. The inset in the figure shows that the supernatants of both the saline and nanomaterial (Sample 1) groups are clear, with red blood cells remaining intact at the bottom. In contrast, the hemolytic activity in the deionized water group is poor, with the liquid appearing red. These results demonstrate that the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared in Example 1 of the present invention have excellent blood compatibility.
[0045] The above results show that the copper calcium phosphate nanosheets prepared by the present invention have a good crystal structure, uniform morphology and good dispersibility, and have good cell and blood compatibility and antibacterial properties.
