Resumo(s)

Hen eggshells (ES), a natural biomaterial from bone-like minerals, has been considered a promising bone substitute to be totally resorbable and biocompatible with good osteoconductivity. The ES represents 11% of the total weight of the egg and it is mainly composed of calcium carbonate (94%), magnesium carbonate (1%), tricalcium phosphate (1%), and organic matter (4%). The purpose of this study was to investigate the addition of ES powder on poly(ε.-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffolds. Morphological and physical analyses were performed to investigate the influence of the ES powder on the properties of the PCL scaffolds.
