In vivo biocompatibility and degradability of a Zn–Mg–Fe alloy osteosynthesis system

Zinc is generally considered to be one of the most promising materials to be used in biodegradable implants, and many zinc alloys have been optimized to improve implant biocompatibility, degradation, and mechanical properties. However, long-term degradation leads to the prolonged presence of degrada...
