One key point in the field of tissue engineering and drug delivery is to provide materials with an adequate porosity. Many events, including nutrient and waste exchange in scaffolds for tissue engineering, as well as the drug-loading capacity and control of the release rate in drug delivery systems,

Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) porous scaffolds were successfully fabricated from calcium phosphate cement (CPC) by a particle-leaching method. The morphology, porosity and mechanical strength as well as degradation of the scaffolds were characterized. The results showed that the CDHA scaffolds
## Abstract This article describes the processing and characterization of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) laminates fabricated by stacking individual TCP sheets for boneβtissue engineering. In particular, the influences of sintering temperature (900, 1000, 1100, or 1200Β°C) on the physical properties of
