GPTMS-modified bredigite/PHBV nanofibrous bone scaffolds with enhanced mechanical and biological properties

Bioceramic nanoparticles with high specific surface area often tend to agglomerate in the polymer matrix, which results in undesirable mechanical properties of the composites and poor cell spreading and attachment. In the present work, bredigite (BR) nanoparticles were modified with an organosilane...
