3D–printed biphasic calcium phosphate scaffolds coated with an oxygen generating system for enhancing engineered tissue survival

Tissue engineering scaffolds with oxygen generating elements have shown to be able to increase the level of oxygen and cell survivability in specific conditions. In this study, biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) scaffolds with the composition of 60% hydroxyapatite (HA) and 40% beta-tricalcium phosphat...
