Since, CS can be dissolved in acidic aqueous solutions, it can be coated on metal surface, such as titanium via solution casting method [89]. Similarly, a coaling of CS and gelatin was prepared on titanium by electrophoretic deposition method. The CS-gelatin coating exhibited good mechanical properties, while human osteoblast cells also showed... 

In another work, Yari Sadi and coworkers [80] studied the effect of partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) on the biological properties of the HDPE/HAp composites by investigating the simultaneous effect of HAp and PSZ volume fractions on the in vitro response of human osteoblast cells. It was found that the volume fraction of HAp has a significant effect on the bioactivity of the composites. The composites provided a favourable site for cell attachment, with cells frequently observed anchoring to the HAp particles. Interestingly, the results show that the addition of PSZ into the HDPE/HAp composites does not adversely affect the biological properties of these composites and, in some cases, composites with PSZ showed better biological results than HDPE/HAp systems [80]. 

The human osteoblastic cells attached to the nanocomposites to a significantly higher degree than to the conventional composites. The cells grew and proliferated favourably on the nanocomposites, suggesting that the Gel/HAp nanocomposites obtained biomimetically have high potential for use as hard tissue scaffolds.
