Journal ArticleDOI
Biomaterials in orthopaedics.
TL;DR: In this review, the evolution of different metals, ceramics and polymers most commonly used in orthopaedic applications is discussed, as well as the different approaches used to fulfil the challenges faced by this medical field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrospun materials as potential platforms for bone tissue engineering.
TL;DR: With the improvement in knowledge and techniques of bone-targeted nanofibrous matrices, bone tissue engineering is expected to be realized in the near future.

TL;DR: In this article, an improved anhydrous TFA precursors allow a significant shortening of pyrolysis time (~1.5h), and they have increased the total film thickness in a single deposition using polymeric additives.
Journal ArticleDOI
A short review: Recent advances in electrospinning for bone tissue regeneration.
TL;DR: While there are some challenges in achieving controllable delivery of bioactive molecules and complex-shaped three-dimensional scaffolds for tissue engineering, the electrospun nanofibrous matrices can still have a beneficial impact in the area of hard-tissue regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrospun gelatin/poly(ε-caprolactone) fibrous scaffold modified with calcium phosphate for bone tissue engineering.
TL;DR: In this study gelatin (Gel) modified with calcium phosphate nanoparticles (SG5) and polycaprolactone (PCL) were used to prepare a 3D bi-layer scaffold by collecting electrospun PCL and gelatin/SG5 fibers separately in the same collector to enhance mineralization, thus improving the ability of the scaffold to bond to the bone tissue.
