Regeneration of bone defects caused by trauma, infection, tumours or inherent genetic
disorders is a clinical challenge that usually necessitates bone grafting materials …

A systematic analysis of results available from in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials on the effects
of biocompatible calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings is presented. An overview of the most …

Tissue engineering is promising to meet the increasing need for bone regeneration.
Nanostructured calcium phosphate (CaP) biomaterials/scaffolds are of special interest as …

Innovative materials are needed to produce scaffolds for various tissue engineering and
regenerative medicine (TERM) applications, including tissue models. Materials derived from …

Large bone defects and nonunions are serious complications that are caused by extensive
trauma or tumour. As traditional therapies fail to repair these critical‐sized defects, tissue …

Bone, like most organs, has the ability to heal naturally and can be repaired slowly when it is
slightly injured. However, in the case of bone defects caused by diseases or large shocks …

Biomimetic production of coatings on various types of scaffolds is based mainly on simulated
body fluid precipitation (SBF) of apatites, or, if the HCO 3− is present, carbonated apatites …

Titanium and its alloys or tantalum (Ta) are materials used in orthopaedic and dental
implants due to their excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, their …

We report on the synthesis by PLD of simple and lithium-doped biological-origin
hydroxyapatite (HA) films. The role of doping reagents (Li 2 CO 3, Li 3 PO 4) on the …

This study investigated the effect of the substrate morphology introduced by various
substrate preparation techniques, namely acid etching (AE) and pulsed electron beam …
