4 Scanning electron microscopy image of 30:70 by weight PLGA/calcium-phosphate cement composite. P. Quinten Ruhe et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2003;85:75-81 ©2003 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Inc.

5 Results of mechanical testing of calcium phosphate cement (Ca-P) and PLGA/calcium- phosphate cement composite. P. Quinten Ruhe et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2003;85:75-81 ©2003 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Inc.

6 Results of LIVE/DEAD cytotoxicity assay of calcium phosphate cement (Ca-P). P. Quinten Ruhe et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2003;85:75-81 ©2003 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Inc.

7 In vitro release of rhBMP-2-loaded PLGA microparticles and PLGA/calcium-phosphate cement composite in pH 7.4 and pH 4.0 under continuous shaking at 37°C, expressed as the ratio of total cumulative mass of rhBMP-2 released to total mass of rhBMP-2 entrapped.
