The chemical compositions of calcium phosphate materials are similar to that of bone making them very attractive for use in the repair of critical size bone defects. The bioresorption of calcium phosphate occurs principally by dissolution. To determi

Efforts to prevent infection of arthroplasties, including the use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement, are not always successful. We investigated whether the incorporation of chitosan in gentamicin-loaded bone cement increases antibiotic release, and pr
