## Abstract To aid in cement removal during revision arthroplasty, it has been proposed to add methylene blue to bone cement to provide contrast between the cement and bone. However, it is essential that the fatigue strength of the cement not be reduced by the addition of the methylene blue. The ef

β¦ Synopsis
In a recent study, we showed that the presence of gentamicin in Palacos R or erythromycin plus colistin in Simplex P bone cement did not significantly decrease the fatigue strength of the cement.

The weight-average molecular weight (MW(w)) of a cement and the method used to mix its powder and liquid monomer constituents have been identified in the literature as key variables that affect mechanical properties of the fully polymerized cement that are relevant to its performance as a grouting a
Recent studies have established that a mechanism of initiation of failure of fixation of cemented femoral components is debonding of the cement-metal interface. Other studies have shown that the torsional forces induced by stair climbing and rising from a chair are very high. Thus, the interface bet
The influence of the storage temperature of the cement constituents prior to mixing (21 vs. 4 degrees C) and the mixing method (hand mixing vs. vacuum mixing) on the uniaxial tension-compression fatigue performance and porosity of Palacos R acrylic bone cement was studied. The fatigue results were a
