Bioactivity study comparing a conventional sol-gel glass in the system and SBA-15 mesoporous material. (a) FTIR study corresponding to the surface of both materials before and after several times soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF). (b) SEM and EDS studies corresponding to the surface of both materials after 3 and 30 days in SBF, respectively.
