Abstract
cytotoxicity, and mouse fibroblast L929 cells and osteoblast MG-63 cells attached to and proliferated on their surface desirably. Our findings indicate that the PGAG/PVDF blend and its nanocomposites could be high-potential candidates for a range of hard tissues, specifically cancellous bones.
