Biomineralization of Fucoidan-Peptide Blends and Their Potential Applications in Bone Tissue Regeneration

Biomineralization of Fucoidan-Peptide Blends and Their Potential Applications in Bone Tissue Regeneration

Fucoidan (Fuc), a natural polysaccharide derived from brown seaweed algae, and gelatin (Gel) were conjugated to form a template for preparation of biomimetic scaffolds for potential applications in bone tissue regeneration. To the Fuc–Gel we then incorporated the peptide sequence MTNYDEAAMAIASLN (MT...
