<h4>Background</h4>Fabrication of porous scaffolds with great biocompatibility and osteoinductivity to promote bone defect healing has attracted extensive attention.<h4>Methods</h4>In a previous study, novel lanthanum phosphate (LaPO<sub>4</sub>)/chitosan (CS) scaffolds were prepared by distributing 40- to 60-nm LaPO<sub>4</sub> nanoparticles throughout plate-like CS films.<h4>Results</h4>Interconnected three dimensional (3D) macropores within the scaffolds increased the scaffold osteoconductivi ...[more]
