Study on an injectable biomedical paste using cross-linked sodium hyaluronate as a carrier of hydroxyapatite particles

Exploring the long-term filler for minimally invasive plastic surgery has been widely concerned. In the present study, a series of injectable paste composed of hydroxyapatite (HAp) spherical particles and cross-linked sodium hyaluronate (cHA) solution were prepared. The physicochemical properties of cHA as a carrier of high content HAp microspheres (>50%) and as-obtained injectable HAp/cHA paste were studied. The cross-linking degree (DC),...
