Fig. 2From: The chitosan/tri-calcium phosphate bio-composite bone cement promotes better osteo-integration: an in vitro and in vivo studyShear force of bio-composite bone cements. The shear force between the bio-composite bone cement and metal material decreased from 1266 N for Pure P to 1048, 1037, 974, 803.6, and 797.7 N for P3TC1, P2TC1, P1TC1, P1TC2, and P1TC3, respectively (n = 12, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 when compared to Pure P)Back to article page
