In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine Loaded Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate Scaffolds

Figure 8

Histological analyses of humeral, femoral, and tibia bone by Villanueva Osteochrome bone staining at 24 weeks after implantation of each group: (a) 40 TCP 3, (b) 1 mM 40 TCP 3, (c) 5 mM 40 TCP 3, and (d) 10 mM 40 TCP 3. The number in front of 40 TCP 3 signifies the concentration of NAC in coating solution for loading NAC on the scaffold.
