Bioresorbable porous β-tricalcium phosphate chelate-setting cements with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) particles as pore-forming agent: fabrication, material properties, cytotoxicity, and in vivo evaluation

Calcium-phosphate cements (CPCs) have been used as bone filling materials in orthopaedic surgery. However, CPCs are set using an acid-base reaction, and then change into stable hydroxyapatite (HAp) in a living body. Therefore, we developed bioresorbable chelate-setting β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)...
