Functionalization of Calcium Sulfate/Bioglass Scaffolds with Zinc Oxide Whisker

Functionalization of Calcium Sulfate/Bioglass Scaffolds with Zinc Oxide Whisker

There are urgent demands for satisfactory antibacterial activity and mechanical properties of bone scaffolds. In this study, zinc oxide whisker (ZnOw) was introduced into calcium sulfate/bioglass scaffolds. Antimicrobial behavior was analyzed using Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureu...
