Bioactive composite scaffolds for bone regeneration:from the process to the biological validation

Abstract

In this work, we have discussed the preparation and characterization of composite scaffolds for bone regeneration. The scaffolds were made with different techniques: salt leaching / phase inversion,filament winding and stereolithography. The phase of preparation is followed by a characterization from a morphological, mechanical and biological point of view. Results were very promising especially regarding the biological response of the substrates that appear to be promising for future in vivo tests.
