The influence of yttrium and manganese additions on the degradation and biocompatibility of magnesium-zinc-based alloys: In vitro and in vivo studies

The repair and regeneration of bone defects are highly challenging orthopedic problems. Recently, Mg-based implants have gained popularity due to their unique biodegradation and elastic modulus similar to that of human bone. The aim of our study is to develop a magnesium alloy with a controllable de...
