This paper reports the production of three-dimensional, highly porous tissue engineering scaffolds based on Poly (hydroxybutyrate-cohydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) biopolymers. Polyhydroxybutyrateco- hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) is a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer that can be used in tissue engineering. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is osetoconductive and is being used for bone replacement. The composite scaffolds made of these two materials have great potential for bone tissue engineering. This paper reports the fabrication and characterization of threedimensional, highly porous HA/PHBV composite scaffolds. The scaffolds were produced using an emulsion freezing / freeze-drying technique. The structure and properties of composite scaffolds were investigated using various techniques. 2012-09-05T13:38:22Z 2012-09-05T13:38:22Z 2012-02-27 Working Paper p. 129-132 978-145771989-9 http://ezproxy.unimap.edu.my:2080/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=6178969 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/20840 en Proceedings of the International Conference on Biomedical Engineering (ICoBE 2012) Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
