Transformation of modified brushite to hydroxyapatite in aqueous solution: effects of potassium substitution.

abstract：:Scaffolds derived from naturally occurring extracellular matrix (ECM) have found extensive use in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Many of these scaffolds are designed to degrade rapidly as they are replaced by new host tissue. Other scaffolds are chemically crosslinked to slow the rate of d...
