ABSTRACT
Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been widely used as an inorganic biomaterial to support regeneration in injured hard tissues. Various osteoconductive inorganic biomaterials have been developed related to the surface modication and composition of effective proteins such as laminin, bronectin, and brin or organic materials such as polyhydroxyalkanoates. These developed biomaterials were tried to improve surface
