Mineralization, biodegradation, and drug release behavior of gelatin/apatite composite microspheres for bone regeneration.

abstract：:A novel approach for the preparation of nano- and microcapsules in aqueous solutions by using thermoresponsive polymer (TRP) templates (mesoglobules) is described. The method comprised three steps: formation of mesoglobules, coating the templates by seeded radical copolymerization, followed by core dissolution and cor...
