Bone is a complex and hierarchical tissue consisting of nano hydroxyapatite and collagen
as major portion. Several attempts have been made to prepare the artificial bone so as to …

Remarkable advances have been achieved in modern material technology, especially in
device fabrication, and these have facilitated the use of diverse materials in various …

Bone injuries and fractures generally take a long period to heal itself. To address this
problem, bone tissue engineering (BTE) has gained significant research impetus. Among …

Abstract Chitin (CT), the well-known natural biopolymer and chitosan (CS)(bio-based or
“artificial polymer”) are non-toxic, biodegradable and biocompatible in nature. The …

Several synthetic scaffolds are being developed using polymers, ceramics and their
composites to overcome the limitations of auto-and allografts. Polymer–ceramic composites …

A novel nano-biocomposite scaffold was fabricated in bead form by applying simple foaming
method, using a combination of natural polymers–chitosan, gelatin, alginate and a …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are emerging as novel nanomaterials for various biomedical
applications. CNTs can be used to deliver a variety of therapeutic agents, including …

This work developed novel chitosan–halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) nanocomposite (NC)
scaffolds by combining solution-mixing and freeze-drying techniques, and aimed to show …

Over the last few years, significant research has been conducted in the construction of
artificial bone scaffolds. In the present study, different types of polymer scaffolds, such as …

Chitosan nanorod with minimum particle size of< 100nm was prepared by crosslinking low
molecular weight chitosan with polyanion sodium tripolyphosphate and physicochemically …
