Tailored degradation of biocompatible poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)/calcium silicate/poly(lactide-co-glycolide) ternary composites: an in vitro study.

Mater. Sci. Eng. C. Mater. Biol. Appl. 33(7) , 4352-60, (2013)

Biodegradable materials, which are currently available for bone tissue regeneration, still have limitations regarding their degradation rate, mechanical stability and/or biological response. Thus, a novel generation of materials for bioactive bone scaffolds i...

Study on analysis of waste edible oil with deterioration and removal of acid value, carbonyl value, and free fatty acid by a food additive (calcium silicate).

J. Oleo Sci. 62(2) , 109-14, (2013)

This study investigated the regeneration of waste edible oil using a food additive (calcium silicate, CAS). Waste edible oil was prepared by combined heat and aeration treatment. Moreover, the deterioration of edible oil by combined heat and aeration treatmen...
