Abstract:Bone tissue engineering has been used in the biomedical field to treat bone defects by implanting scaffolds into bone tissue. However, the currently developed scaffold still needs to be developed to obtain scaffold building materials with good compatible properties and can regenerate damaged bone cells. This study combines PVA/Chitosan polymer with CHA of tuna bone using the porogen leaching method at a calcination temperature of 100°C for 12 hours. The purpose of this study was to determine the physicochemica… Show more
