“…The compressive moduli range from 135±18 to 150±40 MPa without significant differences among samples. Unlike previously reported results of increased mechanical strength of crosslinked PPF composites by adding calcium phosphate such as β-TCP [33,34], in this study the addition of HA nanoparticles does not increase mechanical strength of the final crosslinked PPF/HA nanocomposites. It can be interpreted by the fact that PPF used in this study has a fairly high molecular weight to render a rigid crosslinked PPF with a compressive modulus of over 100 MPa.…”

“…By controlling the molecular weight of PPF and the crosslinking density, the maximum compressive strength and modulus of crosslinked PPF can be over 10 and 100 MPa, respectively [29][30][31][32]. Although many previous studies have been performed to enhance both mechanical strength and osteoconductive properties by adding calcium phosphate such as β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) to PPF [33,34], or preparing PPF/HA composites by either simple mixing [35] or from in situ precipitation [36], the correlation between the physical properties and cell responses on PPF/HA nanocomposites has not yet been reported, compared with other poly(α-hydroxyl acids)-based composites.…”

“…Recently developed porous composite scaffolds have been formed in situ by gas foaming, with up to 61% porosity, 50-500 m pores, and a compressive modulus of . PPF biomaterials have been shown to support osteoblast attachment and proliferation in vitro, and ingrowth of new bone tissue in vivo (16)(17)(18)(19). Growth factors have been incorporated via PLGA micro-spheres into poly(propylene fumarate) materials for controlled release (20).…”

“…Bone marrow stromal cell isolation and preculture Primary cells were freshly isolated from 8 Fischer 344 male rats (6-8 weeks old, 150-165 g), as previously described (Peter et al, 2000). Briefl y, femora and tibiae were excised from the rats under aseptic conditions, and the bone marrow was fl ushed from the bone with primary media.…”
