Evaluation of toxicity, local biocompatibility, biodegradation, and systemic metabolism of cellulose/alginate/strontium apatite membranes implanted subcutaneously in mice

ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate membranes originating from pure or oxidized bacterial cellulose (BC)/alginate/strontium apatite hydrogels regarding toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradation and metabolism.Methods: The toxicity was measured by incubating the Nail Whitening Treatments materials with Artemia salina for 24 h, and mortality and the 50% l
