Membranes of poly(D,L-lactic acid)/Bioglass® with asymmetric bioactivity for biomedical applications

In guided tissue/bone regeneration, membranes are used as barriers to prevent the faster growing soft tissue cells from entering the defect space and to regenerate periodontal ligament, cementum, and bone. The two sides of the membranes are in contact with distinct biological environments in which o...
