Strontium Incorporation on Microspheres of Alginate/β-tricalcium Phosphate as Delivery Matrices

Strontium Incorporation on Microspheres of Alginate/β-tricalcium Phosphate as Delivery Matrices

Strontium (Sr) is known to positively affect the mechanism of bone remodelling. Consequently, calcium phosphate bioceramics associated with alginate matrices containing strontium could improve bone regeneration due to gradual strontium release. This work aims to incorporate Sr on microspheres of alg...
