Scanning Electron Microscopy Analysis of Changes of Hydroxiapatite/Poly-L-Lactide with Different Molecular Weight of PLLAaAfter Intraperitoneal Implantation

Implantation of a biomaterial is one of the important trends in solving the problem of bone tissue loss. Calcium hydroxiapatite (HAp), as the most representative bone component is a serious candidate for such implantations. The synthetic polymer poly-L-lactide (PLLA) in HAp/PLLA is often used as a p...
