Enhanced in vitro osteoblast differentiation on TiO scaffold coated with alginate hydrogel containing simvastatin

The aim of this study was to develop a three-dimensional porous bone graft material as vehicle for simvastatin delivery and to investigate its effect on primary human osteoblasts from three donors. Highly porous titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) scaffolds were submerged into simvastatin containing alginate...
