Engineered polycaprolactone–magnesium hybrid biodegradable porous scaffold for bone tissue engineering
In this paper, we describe the fabrication of a new biodegradable porous scaffold composed of polycaprolactone (PCL) and magnesium (Mg) micro-particles. The compressive modulus of PCL porous scaffold was increased to at least 150% by incorporating 29% Mg particles with the porosity of 74% using Micr...
