Composites of biodegradable polymers with different calcium phosphate ceramics and glasses, have been developed as scaffolds for applications in bone-tissue engineering. In this work, phosphate glass particles have been incorporated into the polymer, poly(95L/5DL) lactic acid (PLA) and porous structures were elaborated. Their porosity, compressive mechanical properties and biological response were evaluated. Interconnected structures with evenly distributed pores and a porosity as high as 97% were obtained. The incorporation of glass particles into the polymer showed to have a positive effect in the mechanical properties of the foams. Indeed, the compressive modulus increased from 74.5 to 120 KPa and the compressive strength from 17.5 to 20.1 KPa for the PLA and the PLA/glass foams, respectively. The biological response was evaluated by means of the MTT test, the materials resulted to be noncytotoxic. (C) 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
