Biomimetic composites by surface-initiated polymerization of cyclic lactones at anorganic bone: Preparation and in vitro evaluation of osteoblast and osteoclast competence
Weigand, Troy; Hiebner, Kris; Gauza, Lukasz; Schwartz, Chris; Song, Zheng; Miller, Steve; Zacharias, Nora M.; Wooley, Paul H.; Redepenning, Jody (Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2013-06-28)Biomimetic composites were constructed using anorganic bone to initiate the polymerization of cyclic lactones. The resulting anorganic bone/polylactone composites preserve the inorganic structure and the mechanical ... -
