Enhanced Osteogenic and Vasculogenic Differentiation Potential of Human Adipose Stem Cells on Biphasic Calcium Phosphate Scaffolds in Fibrin Gels

Table 1

Characteristics of the different BCPs used. Composition, particle size, porosity, and pore width of Straumann BoneCeramic 60/40 and Straumann BoneCeramic 20/80. HA: hydroxyapatite; β-TCP: β-tricalcium phosphate; BCP: biphasic calcium phosphate; SSA: specific surface area. Magnification 50x and 5000x.
