| Abstract | Infection and its complications are one of the greatest threats to the health of orthopedic patients. Mesoporous bioglass (MBG) scaffolds are characterized by well-ordered, three-dimensional, nanometer-sized mesoporous structures, which facilitate the adhesion of hydroxyapatite and the loading of drugs. MBG has been widely used as a new-generation biomaterial in bone tissue engineering. However, MBG is very brittle and lacks antibacterial activity. This limits its applications in the treatment of bone defects, especially large bone defects complicated by infection. In order to dispel these disadvantages, a novel hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HACC) and a class of prolamine proteins found in maize, Zeins, were here used to modify the traditional MBG scaffolds. Two new types of scaffold, MBG–HACC scaffolds and MBG–HACC–Zein scaffolds, were made. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXRD), and Barrett–Joyner–Halenda (BJH) were used to analyze the surface properties of these MBG scaffolds. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mechanical experiments, and synchrotron radiation microcomputer tomography (SRμCT) were used to compare the features of the traditional and modified scaffolds and to analyze the mineralization of the scaffold after being soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF). Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to compare the antibacterial properties and biocompatibility of the scaffolds at various points in time. The current study demonstrates that all these prepared MBG scaffolds possessed well-ordered, three-dimensional, nanometer-sized mesoporous structures and that HACC–Zein-modified MBG scaffolds are characterized by strong bioactivity and by effective, prolonged antibacterial activity. Finally, biocompatibility was demonstrated by studying the in vitro proliferation and viability of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
