Enhanced bone formation onto the bone surface using a hydroxyapatite/collagen bone-like nanocomposite.

The process of bone formation onto the bone surface using a hydroxyapatite/collagen bone-like nanocomposite (HAp/Col) was investigated. Immersion tests were performed to evaluate the impact of pH on the degradation of the specimens in an aqueous environment. The specimens were soaked in aqueous solutions of pH 4.
