Resumen:
In the present work, we aim to enhance the mechanical properties of polyelectrolyte complexes based on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and chitosan (CHI) [1] prepared by ultrasound methodology, to obtained a material that allow bone regeneration. To achieve this goal, we prepared polymeric blends of CMC-CHI and add nano hydroxyapatite (nHAP), a natural component of the bone that improve cell adhesion and enhanced osteogenic and mechanical properties in polymeric blends [2]
