Improvement of the mechanical properties and osteogenic activity of 3D-printed polylactic acid porous scaffolds by nano-hydroxyapatite and nano-magnesium oxide

Porous bone scaffolds based on high-precision 3D printing technology gave recently been developed for use in bone defect repair. However, conventional scaffold materials have poor mechanical properties and low osteogenic activity, limiting their clinical use. In this study, a porous composite tissue...
