Chondroitin sulfate and chitosan were alternately deposited on the activated PDLLA substrate. The deposition process was monitored by UV-Vis absorbance spectroscopy. After frozen and lyophilized, the scaffold was characterized by attenuated total reflection (ATR)-FT-IR, XPS, SEM and AFM. The results showed that the scaffold was modified uniformly with a dense inner layer with few detectable pores and a porous sponge outer layer with the pore size about 5 μm, there was an obvious across section and the average thickness of each layer was about 9.4 nm.展开更多

SEM showed that β-TCP carrier was in porous amorphous structure with diameters around 10 μm. The physical properties including apparent porosity, volume-weight, tensile strength and the permeability were measured and the results indicated those properties fit the clinical usage of β-TCP drug carrier. Furthermore, drug release experiment in vitro showed that the carrier could prolong drug release in simulated body fluid which provides basis for the clinical use of β-TCP ceramics as drug carrier.展开更多
