Overview

In vitro analysis showed biocompatibility of biopolymer composites in bone implants, suggesting effective bioactive properties.

Key Points

  • The PLA/PHA/10%HAP composite displays promising biocompatibility, indicating potential for bone applications.
  • X-ray diffraction confirms the presence of apatite phases in the composite, with a calcium-to-phosphate ratio of 1.67.
  • Scanning electron microscopy illustrates the development of an apatite layer on the composite's surface, enhancing bone interaction.
  • This study utilizes immersion tests in simulated body fluid to evaluate bioactive properties, leading to potential clinical applications.
