Abstract:Knits made of cellulose are promising scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications
due to their multi-scale interconnected porosity, biocompatibility and adjustable biodegradability.
The approach of this study combines the modification of cellulose with strontium to generate
scaffolds capable of forming bone like apatite during exposure to physiological solutions and the
release of strontium as an active agent, that might encourage the development of new bone tissue.
The Sr-release kinetics during static… Show more
