Poly(L-lactic acid), PLLA, a synthetic biodegradable polyester, is widely accepted in tissue engineering. Hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural polymer, exhibits an excellent biocompatibility, influences cell signaling, proliferation, and differentiation. In this study, HA crosslinking was performed by immersion of the polysaccharide in water-acetone mixtures containing glutaraldehyde (GA). The objective of this work is to produce PLLA scaffolds with the pores coated with HA, that could be beneficial for bone tissue engineering applications. PLLA tridimensional scaffolds were prepared by compression molding followed by salt leaching. After the scaffolds impregnation with soluble HA solutions of distinct concentration, a GA-crosslinking reaction followed by inactivation of the unreacted GA with glycine was carried out. An increase on surface roughness is shown by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with the addition of HA. Toluidine blue staining indicates the present of stable crosslinked HA. An estimation of the HA original weight in the hybrid scaffolds was performed using thermal gravimetric analyses. FTIR-ATR and XPS confirmed the crosslinking reaction. Preliminary in vitro cell culture studies were carried out using a mouse lung fibroblast cell line (L929). SEM micrographs of L929 showed that cells adhered well, spread actively throughout all scaffolds, and grew favorably. A MTS test indicated that cells were viable when cultured onto the surface of all scaffolds, suggesting that the introduction of crosslinked HA did not increase the cytotoxicity of the hybrid scaffolds.
