Three‐dimensional‐poly(lactic acid) scaffolds coated with gelatin/magnesium‐doped nano‐hydroxyapatite for bone tissue engineering

Background Treatment of critical‐sized bone defects has progressively evolved over the years from metallic implants to more ingenious three‐dimensional‐based scaffolds. The use of three‐dimensional scaffolds for bone regeneration from biodegradable polymers like poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is gaining popularity. Scaffolds with surface functionalization using gelatin (Gel) have the advantages of biocompatibility and cell adhesion. Nano‐hydroxyapatite...
