Effect of forming conditions of poly-lactic acid/hydroxyapatite to tensile strength of canine bone fixation plate using full factorial experimental design [PDF]
Problems of using metallic bone fixation plates for canine lead to the idea of the replacement with biocomposite materials. In this research, polylactic acid (PLA) blends with hydroxyapatite (HA) powder 5-15% was used as biocomposite material.

Comparison between alkali heat treatment and sprayed hydroxyapatite coating on thermally-sprayed rough Ti surface in rabbit model: Effects on bone-bonding ability and osteoconductivity. [PDF]
In this study, we investigated the effect of different surface treatments (hydroxyapatite (HA) coating, alkali heat treatment, and no treatment) on the ability of bone to bond to a rough arc-sprayed Ti metal surface, using rabbit models.
