Biocompatibility Assessment of Newly Fabricated Melt Derived 45S5 Bioactive Glass on Dental Cells Proliferation
Abstract
Abstract—The purpose of this study was to fabricate bioactive glass and to assess the bioactive glass (BG) biocompatibility through the assessment of proliferation rate of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) in the presence of five different concentrations of 45S5 bioactive glass conditioned medium (1 to 10 mg/ml powder to liquid ratio) using alamarBlue assay. 45S5 bioactive glass known as Bioglass® in mole percentages of 46.13% SiO2, 26.91% CaO, 24.35% Na2O and 2.60% P2O5 was fabricated using melt-quenching technique and then the glass was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirming the composition and its amorphous state. Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous tooth (SHED) were used to evaluate the biocompatibility of 45S5 by exposing the cells to various concentration of BG-conditioned medium (1-10 mg/ml) using alamarBlue assay. XRD result indicated that the BG produced has an amorphous structure. FTIR analysis showed the Si-O-Si bending, Si-O stretching and Si-O-Si stretching (asymmetric) bands present within the BG structure indicating the characteristic of silicate network. For alamarBlue assay, SHED exposed to BG-conditioned medium showed increasing proliferative activity at lower concentration of BG powder to liquid ratio from Days 1 to 7. Hence, it can be concluded that the 45S5 BG with lower concentration of powder to liquid ratio promoted SHED proliferation which can be used for future work.References

In any reasonable circumstances, Reviewers should not consider to evaluate manuscripts if they have conflicts of interest (i.e: competitive, collaborative and/or other connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions affiliated to the papers).
Editors 
Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively based on their academic merit. JBCS strictly do not allow editors to use unpublished information of authors  without the written consent of the author. Editors are required to take appropriate responsive actions if ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Journal of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences requires authors to declare all competing interests in relation to their work. All submitted manuscripts must include a ‘competing interests section at the end of the manuscript listing all competing interests (financial and non-financial). Where authors have no competing interests, the statement should read ,The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. Editors may ask for further information relating to competing interests.
Editors and reviewers are also required to declare any competing interests and will be excluded from the peer review process if a competing interest exists. Competing interests may be financial or non-financial. A competing interest exists when the authors interpretation of data or presentation of information may be influenced by their personal or financial relationship with other people or organizations. Authors should disclose any financial competing interests but also any non-financial competing interests that may cause them embarrassment if they were to become public after the publication of the article.
HUMAN AND ANIMAL RIGHTS
All research must have been carried out within an appropriate ethical framework. If there is suspicion that work has not taken place within an appropriate ethical framework, Editors will follow the Misconduct policy and may reject the manuscript, and/or contact the author(s) institution or ethics committee. On rare occasions, if the Editor has serious concerns about the ethics of a study, the manuscript may be rejected on ethical grounds, even if approval from an ethics committee has been obtained.
Research involving human subjects, human material, or human data, must have been performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and must have been approved by an appropriate ethics committee. A statement detailing this, including the name of the ethics committee and the reference number where appropriate, must appear in all manuscripts reporting such research. Further information and documentation to support this should be made available to Editors on request.
Experimental research on vertebrates or any regulated invertebrates must comply with institutional, national, or international guidelines, and where available should have been approved by an appropriate ethics committee. The Basel Declaration outlines fundamental principles to adhere to when conducting research in animals and the International Council for Laboratory Animal Science (ICLAS) has also published ethical guidelines.
