Surface entrapment of chitosan on 3D printed polylactic acid scaffold and its biomimetic growth of hydroxyapatite
This work reports the surface modification of 3D printed PLA scaffold with chitosan and its hydroxyapatite (HA) forming capability. PLA scaffold was fabricated using a desktop 3D printer followed by the inclusion of chitosan on the surface via surface entrapment. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (...
