Some special implantable materials are defined as “bioactive” if they can bond to living
bone, forming a tight and chemically-stable interface. This property, which is inherent to …

The title of this article could sound a bit curious to some readers since a layer of apatite–and
not calcium carbonate–is well-known to form on the surface of bioactive glasses upon …

The use of bioactive glass (BG) particles as a filler for the development of composite
electrospun fibers has already been widely reported and investigated. The novelty of the …

The combination of biodegradable polymers and bioactive inorganic materials is being
widely used for designing bone tissue engineering scaffolds. Here we report a composite …

Cu-doped 45S5 bioactive glasses with varying Cu contents were fabricated and used to
process 3D porous scaffolds via the foam replica technique. Cu-do** results in the …

In addition to good mechanical properties needed for three-dimensional tissue engineering,
the combination of alginate dialdehyde, gelatin and nano-scaled bioactive glass (45S5) is …

A series of nanocomposite scaffolds comprised of dextran (Dex) and sol–gel derived
bioactive glass ceramic nanoparticles (nBGC: 0–16 (wt%)) were fabricated as bioactive …

Injectable composite colloidal gels are developed for regeneration of osteoporotic bone
defects through a bottom‐up assembly from bisphosphonate‐functionalized gelatin and …

The application of nanotechnology to regenerative medicine has increased over recent
decades. The development of materials that can influence biology at the nanoscale has …
