Strontium substituted bioactive glasses for tissue engineered scaffolds: the importance of octacalcium phosphate
Porous bioactive glasses are attractive for use as bone scaffolds. There is increasing interest in strontium containing bone grafts, since strontium ions are known to up-regulate osteoblasts and down regulate osteoclasts. This paper investigates the influence of partial to full substitution of stron...
