Effect of composition and macropore percentage on mechanical and in vitro cell proliferation and differentiation properties of 3D printed HA/β-TCP scaffolds

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of composition and macropore percentage on the mechanical and biological properties of 3D printed HA/β-TCP scaffolds is debatable, and the results provided some useful insights on applying 3D-Printed HA/α-CPM scaffolds for augmenting absorbed alveolar ridges.

IGF-loaded silicon and zinc doped brushite cement: physico-mechanical characterization and in vivo osteogenesis evaluation.

TL;DR: The findings confirm that addition of Si and/or Zn alters the physico-mechanical properties of BrCs and promotes the early stage in vivo osseointegration and bone remodeling properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated additive design and manufacturing approach for the bioengineering of bone scaffolds for favorable mechanical and biological properties.

TL;DR: This study presents methods for generation of scaffold design files, finite element analysis of scaffolding Young's moduli, AM of scaffolds with polycaprolactone (PCL), and a customized in vitro assay to evaluate cell migration, highlighting the importance of start-to-finish integration of all steps of AM.

Photoinitiator-free 3D scaffolds fabricated by excimer laser photocuring

TL;DR: The demonstration of photoinitiator-free PEGDA scaffolds enables the fabrication of 3D scaffolds with the highest level of biocompatibility for both in vitro and in vivo applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the role of dip-coating process parameters in the mechanical performance of polymer-coated bioglass robocast scaffolds.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the mechanical performance of the hybrid scaffolds is improved monotonically with polymer concentration, but this concentration cannot be increased indefinitely if the macroporosity interconnectivity, and thus the scaffold capacity to promote tissue ingrowth, are to be preserved.
