The present study deals with the application and possibilities of insoluble hydrophilic gels (poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)) as substitutes of bone tissue experimentally. Their biocompatibility is examined with regard to the porous qualities of the implant and to its chemical structure, and thei
Studies were made on the fate of implanted material during bone induction. Mixtures of 1 mg of crude bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), or bovine serum albumin as a control, and 1.5 mg of bovine collagen, were pressed into discs and implanted under the fascia of the rectus abdominus muscle of rats.

Composites composed of microcrystalline calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (HAp) and collagen were formed at 38°C via an acid-base reaction between calcium phosphate precursors in the presence of a collagen matrix. Formation of composites having HAp:collagen weight ratios of 4.5:1, 11:1, and 221, alon
