    Abstract : Calcium phosphate materials (CaPs) have proven biocompatible and useful in clinical situations. One CaP showing promise in the clinic is alpha phase tricalcium phosphate ([alpha]-TCP). [alpha]-TCP in powder form can be hydrated and undergoes a reaction resulting in calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA). READ MORE

  4. 2. The biological and physical performance of high strength dicalcium phosphate cement in physiologically relevant models

    Author : Michael Pujari-Palmer; Håkan Engqvist; Marjam Karlsson Ott; Christele Combes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biomaterial; bioceramic; osteoinduction; calcium phosphate; cement; osteoblast; pyrophosphate; Rebamipide; drug delivery; screw augmentation; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : The chemical properties of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are very similar to the mineral phase of bone. CPCs are, consequently, very effective substrates (scaffolds) for tissue engineering; bone and stem cells attach readily, and can proliferate and differentiate to form new bone tissue. READ MORE

  5. 3. Injectable calcium sulphate and calcium phosphate bone substitutes

    Author : Malin K Nilsson; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatologi; ortopedi; Kirurgi; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; resorbable; hydroxyapatite; bone substitute; calcium phosphate; injectable; calcium sulphate;

    Abstract : Two formulations of biphasic injectable bone substitutes have been developed for the treatment of bone defects and stabilisation of fragility fractures. The first formulation consists of a calcium sulphate matrix with embedded hydroxyapatite (HA) particles to provide osteoconductivity. READ MORE

  6. 4. On hydroxyapatite modified peek implants for bone applications

    Author : Pär Johansson; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dental Implants; Dentala implantat;

    Abstract : People are living longer today than ever before, and the number of older adults will increase exponentially over the next coming years. However, that does not necessarily mean that they are living healthier. READ MORE
