Popis: Results of several studies during past years suggested that magnesium phosphate cements (MPCs) not only show excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, but they also provide improved regeneration capacity due to higher solubility compared to calcium phosphates. These findings also highlighted that chemical similarity of bone substitutes to the natural bone tissue is not a determinant factor in the success of regenerative strategies. The aim of this study was to further improve the degradation speed of MPCs for a fast bone ingrowth within a few months. We confirmed our hypothesis, that decreasing the powder-liquid ratio (PLR) of cement results in an increased content of highly soluble phases such as struvite (MgNH
