...lergic. It is a renowned biomaterial due to its biocompatible nature. Silk proteins have been found to possess antibacterial properties and application in culturing tissues including skin, bone, cartilage and nerves. Sericin has been hailed to have antitumor activity and has also been widely used in different cosmetics. The major hindrance in using spider silk for different purposes is due to its small obtainable amount. Efforts are being made to overcome this...

... calcium phosphate-based biomaterials, can be used in orthopedic and dental surgery. This study focused on the synthesis of the β-CPP bone scaffold from waste biomaterials such as avian eggshell, which consider a natural source of calcium precursor. The β-CPP powder was prepared by a wet precipitation process using calcination temperature 1200 ºC for 2 h, then the scaffold was designed by using cylindrical tem...

...y across all groups. The biomaterials showed no adverse reactions, such as swelling, discharge, or skin color changes at wound sites. The xenogenic camel bone exhibited minimal to moderate inflammatory reactions, typical of normal healing. Haematological parameters remained within the reference range throughout the study. The study confirmed that haematological parameters were within the normal range, indicating good biocompatibility. The material showed minim...
