The main objective of this work was to produce membranes of chitosan and collagen type I and check their ability to undergo “in vitro” calcification. The membranes of chitosan-collagen blends were characterized by TGA, infra-red spectroscopy and DSC. Samples of dense and porous membranes were immersed in solution SBF (Simulated Body Fluid) in order to verify their “in vitro” calcification. The membranes were observed by SEM. The production of chitosan-collagen membranes is possible, in dense and porous versions. We can conclude that the blend is less resistant to high temperatures, in comparison to pristine chitosan membranes shown in literature. Through the initial assays of calcification, we observe that it is possible to induce the calcium deposition on a chitosan-collagen membrane, as seen by SEM. Microscopy of fracture surfaces showed fibril structures, probably formed by collagen
