Abstract:
In this present investigation, a novel series of composite materials based on porous inorganic
compounds—hydroxyapatite and diatomite—have been innovatively formulated for the first time
through surface modification employing the promising macromolecular compound, bambus[6]uril.
The process entailed the application of a bambus[6]uril dispersion in water onto the surfaces of
hydroxyapatite and diatomite. Extensive characterization was carried out, involving IR spectroscopy
and SEM. The materials underwent assessment for hemolytic effects and plasma protein adsorption.
The results revealed that materials containing surface-bound bambus[6]uril did not demonstrate
inherent hemolytic effects, laying a robust groundwork for their use as biocompatible materials. These
findings hold significant promise as an alternative pathway for the development of durable and
efficient bio-composites, potentially unveiling supramolecular strategies incorporating encapsulated
bambus[6]urils in analogous processes.
