Porous hydroxyapatite (HAP) ceramics with different morphologies were fabricated by the freeze casting method. The morphologies of HAP ceramics were modified by adjusting the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) additive in the HAP slurries. HAP ceramics without PVA additive were composed of non

## Abstract Highly porous composites made up of biodegradable poly‐ε‐caprolactone (PCL) and stoichiometric hydroxyapatite (HA) particles have been developed as substrate for bone‐tissue regeneration. The processing technique consists of phase inversion and particulate (salt crystals) leaching. Thre
## Abstract Degradable three‐dimensional porous scaffolds applicable as cell carriers for bone tissue engineering were developed by an innovative solvent casting/particulate leaching technique from poly(L‐lactide‐__co__‐glycolide) (PLG). Three types of PLG scaffolds were prepared, and these had the
## Abstract The aim of this study was the transformation of the macroporous zirconium dioxide ceramic Sponceram® into a biomimetic composite material. To enhance the adhesion of cells and to induce their differentiation into osteoblasts poly‐L‐lysine and BMP‐2 were coupled to polymers and copolymer
