Abstract
To mimic natural bone, a tissue engineering scaffold was developed that combines inorganic and organic components of natural bone, its pore diameter, and its interconnected structure. Collagen was coated onto a PLLA/PCL scaffold and hydroxyapatite particles were delivered throughout the polymer matrix much more easily than with other techniques thanks to the porosity-forming method of combining two porogens, namely, salt leaching and supercritical CO2 extraction. Compared with other coating techniques, this procedure can be performed readily and homogeneous 3D hydroxyapatite coating was achieved.
