“…Nevertheless, biocomposites of these polymers with calcium orthophosphates showed a good biocompatibility both in vitro and in vivo [94,[340][341][342][343][344][345]. Both bioactivity and mechanical properties of these biocomposites can be tailored by varying the volume percentage of calcium orthophosphates.…”

“…Studies have described formation of apatite crystals on the surface of PHB/HA composites after immersion in SBF. Ni and Wang [22] evaluated the effect of HA on the bioactivity of PHB using HA amounts of 0, 10, 20 and 30 vol% HA. It was observed formation of small crystals after 1 day immersion and more near-spherical crystals were observed on the specimen after 7 days immersion.…”
