## Abstract A self‐reinforced polyglycolide (SR‐PGA) membrane has been developed recently by our research group and testing of it begun. To study the behavior of this membrane and its effect on cortical bone, 93 Wistar rats were operated on. SR‐PGA membrane was applied around the rats' femoral diap

A novel composite material with an ultra-high strength and a low elastic modulus called carbon-fiber-reinforced liquid crystalline polymer (LCP/CF) has been developed. We studied the effects of an intramedullary LCP/CF rod on bone in rabbits. A LCP/CF rod of 3.2 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length wa
The response of bone of low density to uncoated, fluorapatite 6-month implantation periods. In addition, probably due to (FA), hydroxyapatite (HA), and hydroxyapatite heat treated the wide inter-and intra-animal variability, no significant (HAHT) plasma-sprayed coated implants was investigated diffe
Nialamide was supplied to slow-growing animals in doses of 20 mg/100 g of diet for 15 or 30 days. The dose for fast-growing animals was 10 mg/100 g of diet. The digestive utilization of calcium and phosphorus decreases significantly when adult slow-growing rats receive the drug for 30 days. This fal
## Abstract Research efforts aim at enhancing early osseointegration of cementless implants to improve early fixation and, thus, reduce the risk of loosening. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 2 had a positive effect on the osseointegration of
## Abstract No options are available for local antibiotic delivery from uncemented implants. By loading a porous titanium implant with a biomimetic HA‐coating (PeriApatite, PA) with antibiotics, we could obtain adequate local antibiotic concentrations and reduce infection susceptibility. This study
