Abstract
Calcium phosphate cements have shown great promise for the regeneration of bone. However, macropores (>100μm) are required for promoting bone ingrowth. Several studies have investigated methods to generate macroporosity within calcium phosphate cements but many of these methods either affect the cement setting or take weeks or months to generate the maximum porosity. This work offers a new method for generating macroporosity within calcium phosphate cements by utilizing glucose microparticles. The microparticles dissolve in less then 72h, thereby generating scaffolds with maximum porosity in short period of time. The results will offer a new method for generating macroporosity within calcium phosphate cements.
