“…The further development of PDLLA/bioglass® composite materials is interesting also due to the fact that PDLLA degrades without generation of any crystalline remnants. Heideman et al, have proved very recently, for example, the complete resorption of PDLLA implants from the extracellular space in animal studies, therefore confirming their tissue tolerance [35]. The course of degradation is more questionable for slowly degradable, crystalline PDLLA of high molecular weight.…”

“…This indicates that the osteoconductive effect of the biomaterial, similar to the examined ones, is necessary for higher levels of osteogenesis and complete healing. In the subgroup where HAp-PLLA composite was implanted, 24 weeks after implantation, besides intensive formation of a new bone, increased binding, as well as migration and distribution of vascular and osteogenic cells within remnants of implanted material were noticed, which confirmed the osteoconductive effect of that biocomposite [9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…The problem was succesfully solved by the application of basic calcium phosphates or carbonated calcium phosphates, which neutralised acid biopolymer degradation products [1,2,3,4]. PHB-calcium phosphate composites have been generally prepared by the solvent method, wet or hot compression and injection moulding [5][6][7][8]. Ni et al [9] studied the effect of hydroxyapatite (HA) content on mechanical properties and bioactivity in PHB-HA composites.…”
