Biodegradable and biocompatible nano composite t-plate implant and a method of synthesizing the same
Abstract
The embodiments herein provide a biodegradable and biocompatible T-plate nano-composite implant with stem cells for treating and repairing broken bones, damaged tissues and torn ligaments. The implant comprises a polymeric matrix part comprising poly lactic glycolic acids (PLGA), a bioceramic part comprising hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles and an endometrial stem cell. The PLGA and HAp nanoparticles act as a matrix and reinforcing agents respectively. A method is provided for synthesizing the T-plate implant. The method comprises synthesizing hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles, poly lactic glycolic acids (PLGA) and HAp nano composite implant. The casting of the poly lactic glycolic acids (PLGA) and HAp nano composite are done in a mold to obtain a T-plate nano composite. An endometrial stem cell from an epithelial cell lining from uterus is isolated and cultured. The endometrial stem cells are implanted on the nano-composite implant
