Application of α-TCP/HAp Functionally Graded Porous Beads for Bone Regenerative Scaffold
説明
<jats:p>α-TCP/HAp functionally graded porous beads were prepared for use as a scaffold for bone regeneration. In this research, porous beads which have compositionally graded layer, from TCP of inner area to HAp of surface area, were fabricated. It is known that the dissolution rate of TCP is fast in compare with that of HAp in living body, thus the inner area would dissolve prior to the surface area. These beads to allow the penetration of cells and blood vessel into the inner area of beads following new bone regeneration. At present, conditions to fabricate the functionally graded porous beads have been established already, and experiments using cells [MC3T3-E1] are in progress.</jats:p>
