摘要:Modern bone implants and their scaffolds are
evolving to become ever more complex engineering objects that
possess the features of hierarchically structured composites
and hybrid materials. Collagen, hydroxyapatite (HAp) and
ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) are
biocompatible materials with well-proven track record of use
in bone tissue engineering. They can be purposefully combined
and structured in order to fabricate engineered biomaterials.
We present some recent achievements in the fabrication of
cellular scaffolds from Collagen-HAp and Collagen-UHMWPE
by freeze casting and drying. The samples were characterized
using Raman spectroscopy, FTIR, SEM, contact angle
measurements, and biocompatibility tests.
