Osteoconductive layer-by-layer films of Poly(4-hydroxy-L-proline ester) (PHPE) and Tannic acid

Orthopedic implants have shown major success in clinics after successful orthopedic surgeries. However, they are also associated with several drawbacks such as local and systemic immune reaction in the body and improper integration of the bone with the implants.
