Abstract

Objective: Bones are stiff structures that upkeep and guard several body parts of the physique. A medical technique entitled bone grafting substitutes misplaced bone to overhaul bone fractures that are very intricate, Otherwise, that does not cure precisely. Methods: Several scaffold formulations are prepared (S1, S2, S3, and S4) using various polymers. The prepared scaffold was studied for their weight loss, swelling ability, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Electron Dispersive X-Ray Analysis, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), optical microscopy, in vitro release studies, and in vitro antimicrobial studies.
