Bone defect is one of the most frequent problems in bone tissue reconstruction in which application of a biomaterial filling is necessary. It creates a still rising demand of biomaterials for bone surgery. Polymer–ceramic nanocomposites (e.g. based on chitosan matrix) is a group of novel materials w...
