Surface modification of cotton-wool-like bone void fillers consisting of biodegradable polymer-based composite fibers containing calcium-salt particles

A cotton-wool-like bone-void-filling material, an aggregate of tangled fibers consisting of biodegradable polymer (poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid); PLGA) with calcium-salt particles, such as calcium carbonate and β-type tricalcium phosphate, is advantageous because it can be easily mixed with autologo...
