## Abstract Conventional methods in fabrication of scaffolds based on polymer/bioceramic composites frequently make use of solution casting then particle leaching. The residues of common organic solvents can get trapped in this technique hence provide safety concerns on final scaffold. In this stud

## Abstract The goal of this study was to design a nontoxic scaffold with both composition and microstructure suitable for bone engineering using collagen (Coll), hydroxyapatite (HA), and poly(lactide‐__co__‐ε‐caprolactone) (PLCL). Mineralized type I Coll was produced by direct nucleation of HA par
## Abstract Biodegradable materials utilized in current orthopedic sports medicine fixation devices are required to maintain mechanical properties for at least 12 weeks to facilitate tissue healing and then ideally degrade with eventual replacement by surrounding tissue (bone). Current materials ex
## Abstract Electrospun composite mats of poly[(D,L‐lactide)__‐co‐__glycolide] and collagen with high porosities of 85–90% and extended pore sizes of 90–130 µm were prepared to mimic the ECM morphologically and chemically. The existence of collagen molecules on the fiber surface was confirmed, enab
This study evaluated the in vivo biocompatibility and biodegradation behavior of a novel polypyrrole (PPy)/poly(D,L-lactide) (PDLLA) composite and PPy-coated poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) membranes. Test membranes were implanted subcutaneously in rats for 3-120 days. The biocompatibility was assess
## Abstract As reported previously, a porous composite of uncalcined hydroxyapatite (u‐HA) and poly‐DL‐lactide (PDLLA) showed excellent osteoconductivity and biodegradability as a bone substitute in rabbit model. In this study, to investigate the usefulness of this composite as a scaffold loaded wi
