Novel beeswax-chitosan/Zinc-hydroxyapatite biocomposite porous scaffolds: Preparation and biological evaluation

We developed a novel BW-CS/ZnHA biocomposite utilizing Beeswax-Chitosan and Zinc-hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (ZnHAP). The uniformed mixture of beeswax-chitosan and ZnHAP was freeze-dried to get a porous biocomposite. The fabricated biocomposite was characterized using FTIR, XRD, and SEM. Moreover,...
