dc.description.abstractIt has been shown that texture can strongly influence the adhesion, orientation and proliferation of cells onto the surface of biomaterials. Additionally, it is possible to imprint micrometer level textures throughout the scaffolds by melt compounding PLLA/polyethylene oxide (PEO) blend, quenching followed by leaching of PEO in water. The objective of this work is to verify how the texture in 3D porous PLLA/Bioglass®composite scaffolds may influence the precipitation of apatite in vitro. © 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.por
