Abstract
Composites of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and organic polymers have been widely utilized as porous scaffold materials for bone tissue engineering. Chitosan is feasible for compositing with HAp because of its biodegradability, high biocompatibility and antimicrobial activity. We previously developed chemical cross-linker-free chitosan-based cryosponges by freeze-thawing aqueous solutions of chitosan-gluconic acid conjugate (CG). In this study, CG...
