The open and total porosity of the studied ceramics was measured using Archimedes’ method and geometrical weight-volume evaluation, respectively. The specific surface area (SSA) of the scaffold was measured using the nitrogen adsorption method, following the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) model (Sorpty 1750, Carlo Erba, Milan, Italy).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
