Corrosion of magnesium and magnesium–calcium alloy in biologically-simulated environment

A study of biocompatibility and corrosion of both metallic magnesium (Mg) and a magnesium alloy containing 1% calcium (Mg–Ca) were investigated in in vitro culture conditions with and without the presence of bone marrow derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Chemical analysis of the degraded...
