Bioactive glass granules of a narrow size range (300–355 μm) implanted in bone tissue fully react in situ to form internal silica-gel cores with a calcium-phosphate rich surface. In a unique process, the internal silica-gel core degrades and what remains is an external calcium-phosphate shell. Inside the excavated granules, osteoprogenitor cells differentiate and form new bone tissue that has not originated from the external surface of the granule or from pre-existing bone. This thesis addresses the fate of the resorbed silica-gel and also its possible effect on bone tissue. With a series of bioactive glass implantation studies in rabbit muscle and bone, we demonstrated that the excretion of bioactive glass resorption products can be quanti...
