Biomaterial-based strategies for maxillofacial tumour therapy and bone defect regeneration
Issues caused by maxillofacial tumours involve not only dealing with tumours but also repairing jaw bone defects. In traditional tumour therapy, the systemic toxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs, invasive surgical resection, intractable tumour recurrence ...

Bone grafts: which is the ideal biomaterial?
Bovine xenograft materials, followed by synthetic biomaterials, which unfortunately still lack documented predictability and clinical performance, dominate the market for the cranio-maxillofacial area. In Europe, new stringent regulations are expected to

Enzymatic activity toward poly(L-lactic acid) implants [PDF]
Tissue reactions toward biodegradable poly(L-lactic acid) implants were monitored by studying the activity pattern of seven enzymes as a function of time: alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, -naphthyl acetyl esterase, -glucuronidase, ATP-ase, NADH ...

Accepting higher morbidity in exchange for sacrificing fewer animals in studies developing novel infection-control strategies. [PDF]
Preventing bacterial infections from becoming the leading cause of death by the year 2050 requires the development of novel, infection-control strategies, building heavily on biomaterials science, including nanotechnology.

Implantation of silicon dioxide-based nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite and pure phase beta-tricalciumphosphate bone substitute granules in caprine muscle tissue does not induce new bone formation [PDF]
Background: Osteoinductive bone substitutes are defined by their ability to induce new bone formation even at heterotopic implantation sites. The present study was designed to analyze the potential osteoinductivity of two different bone substitute ...
