“…Certain plants, such as potatoes, corn, and wheat, can produce starch. This naturally occurring polysaccharide is found in leaves, fruits, roots, and seeds as 1-110 μm granules (37,3). Starch is commonly employed in the food business because it can be digested and broken down (by amylases) into oligosaccharides to obtain energy (14).…”

“…The presence of several hydroxyl groups in the structure of starch, have made possibility of the functionalization of this biopolymer with various functionalities. Based on the biocompatibility and the possibility of the modification of starch, this compound has found applications in several fields, including tissue engineering, [20,21] drug delivery, [22][23][24] and packaging. [25,26] For enhancing the physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of starch, one approach is to fabricate hybrid and composite materials in starch matrix.…”

“…Recently, injectable hydrogels have attracted the attention for bone tissue-engineering applications because they can replace implantation surgery with a minimally invasive injection method and can form any desired shape, to match irregular defects (Liu et al, 2017). For example, starch can be used in the form of bone cement, scaffolds or microparticles in numerous clinical applications (Carvalho et al, 2016).…”
