Bone growth in vivo evaluated by cross-sectioning of porous tantalum scaffolds at 12w after surgery. (A) Representative HE staining results of porous tantalum scaffolds. (B) Undecalcified sections of sequential fluorescence staining for bone: red (Alizarin red), green (Calcein) and blue (DAPI). (C) SEM micrographs and EDS mapping of bone growth in different porous tantalum scaffolds. Maps of element tantalum, calcium, phosphorus, carbon, and oxygen are in green, pink, blue, cyan, and red, respectively. NB, New bone; Ta, Tantalum.
