Researchers from Ocean University of China and Qilu Hospital of Shandong University have developed nacre-derived biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) composite scaffolds that combine osteogenic and ...

The paper introduces a novel bioactive glass that outperformed both standard glass and a widely used commercial bone substitute in preclinical trials. Glass is generally thought of as fragile, but in ...

A handheld device can apply synthetic bone grafts directly at the site of a defect or injury without the need for prior imaging or fabrication. Researchers demonstrated the technology by modifying a ...

A glue-gun-like device that can be used to print biodegradable bone grafts directly into fractures could revolutionize orthopedic surgery, offering personalized implants that speed healing and cut ...

At the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) in Seattle, researchers from Ashibio Inc. reported preclinical efficacy data on vantictumab, a human monoclonal IgG2 lambda antibody that ...

A test tube contains the CitraBoneQMg bone implants researchers used in the study.Caleb Craig/Penn State. Broken bones often heal naturally with time, a cast, or a brace. But when fractures are ...

A tool made from a modified glue gun can now repair broken bones in surgery by 3D-printing grafts directly onto them. Bone implants have historically been made of metal, donor bone and more recently ...
