Abstract

he demand for new materials that serve as a bioactive medium or porous frameworks for applications in the biomedical field has been increasing due to the general age increase of the population, illnesses caused by accidents or recurrent to trauma, which reduce the quality of life. Freshwater sponges taken from the Rio Negro (Amazonas, Brazil) have siliceous structure, appearing as an alternative source for applications several. Studies have shown that porous structures coated with biological apatite increase the adsorption of proteins and accelerate the adhesion of osteogenic cells. The objective of this work was to evaluate the surface morpholog y and chemical composition by means of X-ray diffraction (SRX) techniques, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray spectroscopy by dispersive energ y (EDS), observing the presence of mainly silica structures which, in biological environment, favor osteogenesis and consequently the process of bone regeneration.
