Schematic illustration of gelatin composite cryogels impregnated with mineral nanoparticles prepared by self-assembly of tannic acid in ion-rich SBF (TMP/Gel). The TMP/Gel composite cryogels are dual-functional, with anti-inflammatory and osteoinductive capacity. The nanoparticles were prepared by the assembly of tannic acid in ion-rich SBF via complex chemical processes, including metal coordination, oxidative polymerization, and electrostatic interactions
