摘要: Composite materials such as ceramic are now widely used in the field of Tissue Engineering. Ceramic composites because their high compressive strength, microstructure and biocompatibility. This paper describes mechanical biological characterisation a commercial composite material. The material was formed into 3D scaffold for use cell studies using Rapid Prototyping. Secondary hardening phases (sintering infiltration) were an aim to increase strength surface integrity printed samples. resulted increases up 12MPa when compared with untreated samples at 4MPa. infiltrated monitored any cytotoxic effects while solution Primary Tendon Fibroblasts. Both infiltration techniques early mortality indicating presence non-biocompatible substances. research evaluates properties biocompatibility Prototyped
