Comparative study of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)/tricalcium phosphate scaffolds incorporated or coated with osteogenic growth factors for enhancement of bone regeneration

Bone graft substitutes are commonly used to treat large bone defects, particularly if they can additionally act as a local delivery system for therapeutic agents capable of enhancing bone regeneration. In this study, composite scaffolds made of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and tricalcium ph...
