- Abstract
High-throughput (HT) screening and combinatorial searches for the discovery, development and optimization of functional materials have been widely accepted in many new materials discovery. Dry powder HT library synthesis have advantages such as using same powder materials in lab as in production, and avoiding the use of additives and/or solvents which could be harmful for cells. The VaryDose dry powder dispensing technology was adapted in this work to dispense nanobioceramic powders in quantities as low as 0.1 mg per dispensing. Nanocalcium phosphate biomaterials, including hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), were selected to demonstrate the library fabrication. The dispensing unit design and the effect of the dispensing parameters on dosage control and uniformity are discussed.
