20100029549 | SITU SELF-SETTING MINERAL-POLYMER HYBRID MATERIALS, COMPOSITION AND USE THEREOF - The present invention relates to self-setting compositions consisting in admixed liquid and solid components enable the formation of hardened bio-materials having a broad range of properties and performances. The present invention proposes a) a thermo-sensitive self-gelling liquid component, being water-based, comprising at least a polycationic and a phosphate source, wherein the liquid component is a thermo-gelling solution at a pH ranging from 6.5 to 7.4; b) a powder component consisting in at least two calcium phosphate sources. The preferred calcium phosphate source includes apatites, tricalcium phosphates, tetracalcium phosphates and dicalcium phosphates. Both solid and liquid components are admixed to form a flowable slurry that sets in situ into a hardened calcium phosphate based bio-material. | 02-04-2010 |
20100021545 | INJECTABLE IN SITU SELF-FORMING MINERAL-POLYMER HYBRID COMPOSITION AND USES THEREOF - Self-forming hybrid compositions consisting in admixed liquid and solid components enable the formation of bio-materials. The present invention proposes a) a thermo-sensitive self-forming liquid component, being water-based and containing at least a polycationic polymer such as chitosan, and an organic mono-phosphate source, which is a solution at a pH ranging from 6.5 to 7.4; b) a solid component being mineral and composed of at least one of calcium, fluoride, strontium, carbonate and phosphate salts. Solid mineral salts preferentially have a recognized bioactive potential such as the calcium phosphate salts for bones. Both solid and liquid components are admixed to form an injectable liquid slurry or pre-gelled paste that turn in situ into a hybrid uniform gel-like bio-material. | 01-28-2010 |
