Fabrication of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/calcium phosphate bone cement composite: synthesization of calcium phosphate from crab shells

Crab shells are waste product, rich with calcium compound. Calcium element is often used as a material for bone scaffold due to its bioactive and biodegradation properties. In this study, calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles were synthesized from crab shells through a wet chemical route. The CaP na...
