Abstract
The thesis work deals with the development chitosan (CS) based composite scaffold with improved materials for bone tissue engineering. Chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol scaffolds crosslinked with natural crossliker (genipin) and reinforced with nano hydroxyapatite with different concentrations were successfully prepared by solvent casting and electrospining technique and characteriezed by mechanical , wettability, swelling, degradation, antibacterial activity,in vitro and vivo tests.
The discussion was conducted in a scientific atmosphere, and the student was awarded a doctorate degree with a grade of (Pass) after completing all the amendments that were put forth by the discussants.
