Abstract

The cytocompatibility of poly(caprolactone fumarate) (PCLF) which is used for filling the bone defects was investigated. PCLF was developed by copolymerization of fumaryl chloride (FC) with poly(caprolactone) (PCL) that self-linked in the absence of a crosslinking agent. The PCLF scaffolds were salt leached to form a three-dimensional porous and interconnected scaffold. The results showed that the self-crosslinking linear PCLF and the crosslinked PCLF scaffolds are compatible with human fetal osteoblast cells.
