| Annotation: | As the population continues to grow, so does the number of surgeries in various fields of medicine, including reconstructive surgery and regenerative medicine. This implies a need for a research of such biomaterials that will closely mimic the structure of the original tissue. The present project will aim to address the issues related to the currently used bone implants, i.e. low mechanical properties with the simultaneous maintenance of their biological properties. The production of composite systems based on bioelastomers and bioactive phases in the form of bioceramics or cements is expected to take advantage of both components with the outstanding bioactivity, self-setting and handling properties of cements along with excellent elastic properties, mechanical reinforcement and improved biodegradation offered by elastomers. A great emphasis will be given on the production of glycerol carboxylate polyesters and their effective incorporation into the bioactive matrix. |
