Biomimetic apatite deposition on polymeric microspheres treated with a calcium silicate solution

Bioactive polymeric microspheres can be prepared by means of coating them with a calcium silicate solution and subsequently soaking in a simulated body fluid (SBF). Such combination should allow for the development of bioactive microspheres for several applications in the medical field including tis...
