The impact of critical point drying with liquid carbon dioxide on collagen-hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds.
Collagen-hydroxyapatite composites for bone tissue engineering are usually made by freezing an aqueous dispersion of these components and then freeze-drying. This method creates a foamed matrix which may not be optimum for growing cell colonies larger than a few hundred micrometres due to the limite...
