Improvement of bone regeneration by a synergistic combination of octacalcium phosphate and water glass
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is a precursor of biological apatite minerals that can be used in synthetic bone grafts. In this work, a new type of synthetic bone grafts was developed by adding water glass to OCP (W-OCP). The OCP phase is generally known to be thermodynamically unstable and rapidly hyd...
