[ 1 ] - Current Concepts in Scaffolding for Bone Tissue Engineering

Bone disorders are of significant worry due to their increased prevalence in the median age. Scaffold-based bonetissue engineering holds great promise for the future of osseous defects therapies. Porous composite materials andfunctional coatings for metallic implants have been introduced in next generation of orthopedic medicine for tissueengineering. While osteoconductive materials such as hyd...

[ 2 ] - Fabrication and Structural, Mechanical, and Biological Characterization of Vancomycin-Loaded Chitosan-Hydroxyapatite-Gelatin Beads for Local Treatment of Osteomyelitis

 Background and purpose: Topical antibiotic medication is an alternative method in treatment of local infections, especially osteomyelitis. Currently several biomaterials are used for this purpose. The present study focused on the fabrication and characterization of chitosan and Vancomycin (VCM)-loaded chitosan (CS)-hydroxyapatite (HA)-gelatin (G) bead in treatment of osteomyelitis. Materials ...
