    Abstract:
    The aim was to obtain bone repair materials with sustained release of minocycline and evaluate the effect in periodontal bone defect repair. Two complex material, hydroxyapatite/chitosan (HA/CS) and minocycline-hydroxyapatite/chitosan (Mino-HA/CS), were prepared by the co-precipitation method. The physical and chemical property, cytotoxicity, release of minocycline and the bacteriostasis examination of the materials were evaluated, they were applied to the rabbit model of mandible bone defect to evaluate their effects on the regeneration of periodontal bone defect. After minocycline was added to HA/CS, the setting time of the material was prolonged, the compressive strength was reduced and the pore size and porosity were increased significantly. The pH value did not change obviously and stayed in the neutral range. Mino-HA/CS could promote the growth of osteoblasts effectively compared with control medium. In vivo, Mino-HA/CS material showed better effect of promoting periodontal bone formation.
