Resumo(s)
Purpose: In this work, an alumina scaffold was produced through a new method to be used in a near future as a bone substitute.
Methods: In vitro and in vivo studies were performed in order to characterize the mechanical and biological properties of the scaffold.
Results: the results obtained showed that this scaffold has high mechanical resistance and a porous surface that allows human osteoblast cells to adhere and proliferate. the in vivo studies revealed no systemic reaction.
Conclusions: the alumina scaffold produced herein has the mechanical and biological properties that are compatible with its application in bone therapy.
