Hondroplastic Efficiency of Calcified Bone Matrix Produced by Original Technology

Nanocrystals produced by ARTcrystal ® - technology

Fetuin-A regulation of calcified matrix metabolism.

The final step of biomineralization is a chemical precipitation reaction that occurs spontaneously in supersaturated or metastable salt solutions. Genetic programs direct precursor cells into a mineralization-competent state in physiological bone formation (osteogenesis) and in pathological mineralization (ectopic mineralization or calcification). Therefore, all tissues not meant to mineralize ...

Cartilage damage involving extrusion of mineralisable matrix from the articular calcified cartilage and subchondral bone.

Arthropathy of the distal articular surfaces of the third metacarpal (Mc3) and metatarsal (Mt3) bones in the Thoroughbred racehorse (Tb) is a natural model of repetitive overload arthrosis. We describe a novel pathology that affects the articular calcified cartilage (ACC) and subchondral bone (SCB) and which is associated with hyaline articular cartilage degeneration. Parasagittal slices cut fr...

Antigens produced by recombinant DNA technology.

Some of the greatest beneficiaries of the revolutionary advances in biotechnology over the past 15 years have been producers of diagnostic reagents, especially for the cloning and expression of antigens, primarily of viral origin. Recombinant DNA technology provides methods for producing antigens for diagnostic assays that are more highly purified, more specific, and safer to produce than viral...

Bone Fractures Produced by High Velocity Impacts '

The effects of high velocity impact to the distal end of 122 human femurs were studied using one-quarter inch steel spheres as projectiles, with impact velocities from 500 to 1700 feet per second. In the lower velocity range, a "drill hole" fracture was produced with low energy expenditure, and the diameter of this type of fracture was increased as a function of increasing velocity. At the high...
