Non-Cytotoxic Agarose/Hydroxyapatite Composite Scaffolds for Drug Release

Healing of large bone defects requires implants or scaffolds that provide structural guidance for cell growth, differentiation, and vascularization. In the present work, an agarose-hydroxyapatite composite scaffold was developed that acts not only as a 3D matrix, but also as a release system. Hydrox...
