| Abstract Scope |
Bismuth ferrite (BFO), a multiferroic material with many applications, has recently been a distinct and significant candidate for biomedical applications. In this study, 3D-bio-printed scaffolds were produced by combining PLA with BFO, which is widely used due to its biocompatibility and functionality. In order to evaluate the drug release ability of the scaffolds, the scaffold design was finalized by adding 2 different concentrations of the antibiotic drug amoxicillin (AMX) to the scaffolds, and the chemical composition of the scaffolds was verified by FTIR. It was aimed to evaluate the drug release under the magnetic field from the designed scaffolds in vitro. The suitability of the scaffolds for drug loading was examined in terms of physical, mechanical, and chemical aspects, by SEM, swelling-degradation test, tensile test, and DSC analysis, respectively. |
