Cell proliferation co-cultured with the α-TCP120 and IP6-α-TCP120 cement specimens using Transwell kit: (a) control (polystyrene plate), (b) α-TCP120 (P/L = 1/0.40 [g/cm3]), and (c) IP6-α-TCP120 (P/L = 1/0.40). The cement specimens were set on the membrane of Transwell after the cells were cultured for 24 h. Error bars indicated standard error of the mean ( ). The cell proliferation of polystyrene plate and two kinds of cement specimen was almost the same level, and no significant differences among them were observed.
