Tissue grafts Due to its good biocompatibility, bioactivity and degradability, collagen has been widely studied as a tissue graft. For example, it can be used as bone repair material, tendon repair material, vascular stent and so on. ...
Uses of Recombinant Human Collagen Due to its good biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, stabilized property, recombinant human collagen has been widely used in tissue engineering (such as vascular scaffolds engineering, cartilage, bone defect repair), skin injury treatment, drug delivery, etc. [1]. ...
The Brisbane-based designer of the world’s smallest orthopaedic screw has invoiced US hospital suppliers $900,000 in the three weeks since the device gained Food & Drug Administration approval, and he hopes it can soon be made in Brisbane too. Field Orthopaedics, founded in 2016 by former Army doctor Chris Jeffery alongside a team of doctors and engineers including hand surgeon Greg ...
What happens when you bring 90+ expert dentistry and maxillofacial surgeon’s together in a room to unpack the burgeoning world of collagen membrane technology and digital dentistry? There are plenty of reasons to smile, that’s what. On Tuesday 7 August 2018, Australian regenerative medicine company Orthocell (ASX:OCC) sponsored and participated in an industry forum, Advances in ...
By combining different cell populations in a fibrin bioink, researchers from Trinity College Dublin, Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and University of Illinois Chicago were able to sprout an in vitro microvessel network that was then exploited to prevascularise a 3D printed scaffold implanted in a critical size femoral defect using REGENHU bioprinter. This dual approach was observed to ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) differentiate towards multiple lineages that participate in bone formation and are often utilized for bone regeneration therapy. ...
Osteogenesis, or new bone formation, begins in the early stages of embryonic development and continues postnatally until skeletal maturity is reached in early adulthood. Osteogenesis reoccurs in the event of bone trauma, such as a fracture or surgically created defect. Bone mass can also increase in response to chronic weight bearing from daily use or decrease due to a lack of movement or applied ...
It can be used as the main material for repairing joints and bones. It can also be used as suture clip and vascular stent in medical devices. ...
Then, I was assigned to design the layout for an article called “Designer Bones,” and I discovered EpiBone. The title itself alerted me that creative thinking drove EpiBone, outwardly a hard-core biotechnology company that grows personalized bone grafts for implantation. To me, the scientists there were inventors, trailblazing a new route toward ...
A localised and release–controlled carrier is essential to enhance the effectiveness of bone morphogenetic protein in bone regeneration and repair. In this work, TiO2 nanotubes with diameter larger than 350 nm were successfully fabricated for the first time by electrochemical method using diethylene glycol electrolyte. The diameter of the ...
It is hypothesised that the use of naturally–sourced raw materials for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HA), as a component of a hard tissue constructs, enables enhanced bone remodelling due to the biomimetic physical–chemical characteristics of the HA. The aim of this study was to convert coccolith rich chalk to HA with the potential application of aiding bone ...
