Composite nanoclay-hydroxyapatite-polymer fiber scaffolds for bone tissue engineering manufactured using pressurized gyration
TL;DR: A novel fabrication of polymer composite fibers using polycaprolactone, montmorillonite nanoclay, and nano-hydroxyapatite-clay for bone tissue engineering applications demonstrated that the polymer fiber scaffolds are biocompatible, and the cells were able to thrive and differentiate on the Fiber scaffolds.
