For bone tissue regeneration, composite scaffolds containing biodegradable polymers and nanosized osteoconductive bioceramics have been regarded as promising biomimetic systems. Polymer blends of poly(hydroxybutyrate-co- hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) can be used as the polym...
