Additional information

The paper assessed risk associated with bioactive glass nanoparticles. Bioactive glass nanoparticles are being developed for therapeutic applications and may be released from bioactive glass orthopaedic medical devices as they degrade. The paper describes method for synthesising spherical bioactive glass particles and the response of bone marrow derived stem cells to the particles. Particles smaller than 250 nm were internalised by cells but did not enter their nuclei. Used by leading research groups: Mano (Minho, Portugal); Lei (Guangzhou, China); Vallet-Regi (Madrid, Spain); Mohn (ETH Zurich). Awarded 2010 Lloyds of London Science in of Risk prize in Biological Risk.
