Characterising structural, mechanical and cytotoxic properties of coral-based composite material intended for bone implant applications

Studies concerning the application of Porites asteroides coral for bone implant purposes have demonstrated the biological viability of its use. As a complement to previous research regarding the development of bone-powder based composite materials which are useful for such applications, this study w...
