Improvement of physical properties of calcium phosphate cement by elastin-like polypeptide supplementation
Abstract Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are synthetic bioactive cements widely used as hard tissue substitutes. Critical limitations of use include their poor mechanical properties and poor anti-washout behaviour. To address those limitations, we combined CPC with genetically engineered elastin-li...
