Abstract
The phenomenon of bioactivity is associated with the formation of acrystallized hydroxyl carbonated apatite (HCA) layer on the bioglass surface, when soaked in a simulated physiological fluid. This layer is similar to the mineral phase of bone. Synthesized bioglasses have been obtained using organic modifiers instead of mineral modifiers, which are the usual precursors for sol–gel synthesis. Hyperthermia treatment is a method of the cancer therapy using the high temperature up to 43ºC which healthy cells survive but tumor cells can’t resist. The materials used to raise the temperature are called as thermoseed and they are ferrimagnetic, ferromagnetic and superparamagnetic particles potentially.
