Abstract:Scaffolds with osteoconductivity, biocompatibility and good mechanical properties are promising for local drug release of sodium alendronate (ALN), a first-choice drug for treatment of bone tissue diseases, with low bioavailability. The viability to manufacture poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA)/poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filaments containing ALN in different proportions, through extrusion, followed by scaffolds using 3D printing by fusion deposition modelling (FDM) and to investigate the influence of processe… Show more
