In this study we have fabricated porous injectable spherical scaffolds using chitosan
biopolymer, sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) and nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA). TPP was …

Background A nanohydroxyapatite-coated chitosan scaffold has been developed in recent
years, but the effect of this composite scaffold on the viability and differentiation of …

Traditional strategies of bone repair include autografts, allografts and surgical
reconstructions, but they may bring about potential hazard of donor site morbidity, rejection …

Alveolar bone loss is associated with infections and its augmentation is a pre-requisite for
the success of dental implants. In present study, we aim to develop and evaluate novel …

Regeneration of craniofacial bone defects is a key issue in the bone regeneration field.
Hence, novel treatment strategies, such as tissue engineering using porous scaffolds, have …

In recent years, hydroxyapatite (HAp) and β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) were extensively
used to prepare composite scaffolds for bone repair. However, due to a lack of systematical …

Background Destruction of alveolar bone and periodontal ligament due to periodontal
disease often requires surgical treatment to reconstruct the biological construction and …

Resorbable biomaterials have been investigated as barrier membranes to compartmentalize
the periodontal defects while selectively guiding osteoprogenitor cell proliferation and bone …

Background Many shortcomings exist in the traditional methods of treating bone defects,
such as donor tissue shortages for autografts and disease transmission for allografts. The …

The aim of this study was the design of novel biodegradable porous scaffolds for bone tissue
engineering (bTE) via supercritical CO2 (scCO2) foaming process. The porous scaffolds …
