Schematical illustrations of (a) the swelling behaviour of a crosslinked 3-D zwitterionic polymer scaffold in water vs. in aqueous saline solution, and (b) 3-D HA-mineralization of a zwitterionic polymer scaffold driven by a gradual increase of supersaturation resulting from the thermal decomposition of urea.
