Brushite cement containing gelatin: evaluation of mechanical strength and in vitro degradation
Abstract Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are potential materials for repairing bone defects, mainly due to their excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. Nevertheless, their low mechanical properties limit their usage in clinical applications. The gelatin addition may improve the mechanica...
