Synthesis and characterization of injectable bone cement prepared from biphasic calcium phosphate extracted from lamb and bovine bones

Dicalcium phosphate (DCP) cements such as dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) also known as brushite and dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (DCPA) also known as monetite have received considerable attention of researchers due to their potential applications in dental, maxillofacial and orthopaedic surge...
