Synthesis and evaluation of novel bioactive composite starch/bioactive glass microparticles

The aim of the development of composite materials is to combine the most desired properties of two or more materials. In this work, the biodegradable character, good controlled-release properties, and natural origin of starch-based biomaterials are combined with the bioactive and bone-bonding proper...
