Herein, the physicochemical characterization of MgONPs-PCL/PTH-PCL, the release rates of MgONPs and PTH, and antibacterial efficiency of the new membrane were evaluated. Furthermore, the pro-osteogenicity of the membranes was assessed both in-vitro and in-vivo.Results: We successfully fabricated a coaxially electrospun nanofiber MgONPs-PCL/PTH-PCL membrane with the major
