  • METHODS FOR COATING BONE ALLOGRAFTS WITH PERIOSTEUM-MIMETIC TISSUE ENGINEERING SCAFFOLDS
    Publication number: 20150086602
    Abstract: Methods of coating bone surfaces and coated bones comprising a coating comprising (a) a porous polysaccharide scaffold and/or a plurality of polysaccharide nanofibers; and (b) a polyelectrolyte multilayer composition, are disclosed. The methods of coating bone surfaces and the coated bones disclosed provide a biomimetic periosteum to compensate for periosteum lost in preparing bone grafts, and the coated bone grafts, including allografts, restore lost osteogenic and osteoinductive qualities and improve clinical outcomes.
