Degradation mechanisms and acceleration strategies of poly (lactic acid) scaffold for bone regeneration

Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) with good biodegradability, biocompatibility and processability has a wide application prospect in bone tissue engineering. However, PLA exhibits a very slow degradation rate, hindering the regeneration of new bone. In this study, the degradation mechanisms of PLA bone scaff...
