contents Bioceramic porous microspheres are promising substances for dental and orthopedic bone void filling, tissue engineering and drug delivery applications. In this research, the structure and cytocompatibility of bioactive magnesium-calcium silicate macroporous microspheres loaded with vancomycin hydrochloride, an antibiotic drug, were studied. In this regard, bredigite (Ca7MgSi4O16), akermanite (Ca2MgSi2O7) and diopside (CaMgSi2O6) carriers were fabricated through a sequence of sol-gel, calcination, droplet extrusion and sintering processes, followed by impregnated with vancomycin. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy verified the formation of the desired ceramic crystalline phases and macroporous characteristics of the carriers, respectively. Based on the MTT assay, the antibiotic-loaded bredigite, akermanite and diopside devices comparatively exhibited the lowest, intermediate and highest levels of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) viability and proliferation, respectively. It was concluded that the role of the carrier bioresorption kinetics prevails over the drug delivery kinetics in determining the cell biocompatibility of the devices.
