Calcium phosphate (CaP) bioceramics are widely used in the field of bone regeneration,
both in orthopedics and in dentistry, due to their good biocompatibility, osseointegration and …

Advances in nanoparticle (NP) production and demand for control over nanoscale systems
have had significant impact on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). NPs …

While slow release of chemicals has been widely applied for drug delivery, little work has
been done on using this general nanotechnology-based principle for delivering nutrients to …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a member of the Ca apatite family. It resembles natural bone in both
structure and chemical composition. HA, owing to its bioactive and biocompatible properties …

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is the major mineral constituent of vertebrate bones and teeth. It has
been well documented that HAp nanoparticles can significantly increase the biocompatibility …

Ceramic nanoparticles are primarily made up of oxides, carbides, phosphates and
carbonates of metals and metalloids such as calcium, titanium, silicon, etc. They have a wide …

Nanocomposites have emerged in the last two decades as an efficient strategy to upgrade
the structural and functional properties of synthetic polymers. Aliphatic polyesters as …

At present, strong requirements in orthopaedics are still to be met, both in bone and joint
