20160000969 | Solid Substrates for Promoting Cell and Tissue Growth - This invention provides solid substrates for promoting cell or tissue growth or restored function, which solid substrate is characterized by a specific fluid uptake capacity value of at least 75%, which specific fluid uptake capacity value is determined by establishing a spontaneous fluid uptake value divided by a total fluid uptake value. This invention also provides solid substrates for promoting cell or tissue growth or restored function, which solid substrate is characterized by having a contact angle value of less than 60 degrees, when in contact with a fluid. This invention also provides solid substrates for promoting cell or tissue growth or restored function, which solid substrate is characterized by a substantial surface roughness (Ra) as measured by scanning electron microscopy or atomic force microscopy. The invention also provides for processes for selection of an optimized coral-based solid substrate for promoting cell or tissue growth or restored function and applications of the same. | 01-07-2016 |
20150374880 | Solid Substrates for Mitigating or Preventing Cell and Tissue Adhesion and Vascularization - This invention provides solid substrates for mitigating or preventing cell or tissue adherence and/or vascularization, which solid substrate comprises a marine organism skeletal derivative and is characterized by a specific fluid uptake capacity value of less than 40%, which specific fluid uptake capacity value is determined by establishing a spontaneous fluid uptake value divided by a total fluid uptake value and processes for selection of an optimized marine organism skeletal derivative-based solid substrate for mitigating or preventing cell or tissue adherence and/or vascularization and applications of the same. This invention also provides solid substrates for mitigating or preventing cell or tissue adherence and/or vascularization, which solid substrate is characterized by having a contact angle value of more than 60 degrees, when in contact with a fluid. This invention also provides solid substrates for mitigating or preventing cell or tissue adherence and/or vascularization, which solid substrate is characterized by a minimal surface roughness (Ra) or substantial surface smoothness, as measured by scanning electron microscopy or atomic force microscopy. The invention also provides for processes for selection of an optimized coral-based solid substrate for mitigating or preventing cell or tissue adherence and/or vascularization and applications of the same. | 12-31-2015 |
20150289889 | Tools and Systems for Solid Form and Graft Implantation - This invention provides tools and kits for removal of a graft and/or for implantation of a solid or semi-solid form or graft within an appropriate desired tissue minimizing the potential for or actual breakage of the implant or graft during the stated process. Kits comprising such tools and methods making use of same are provided, as well. | 10-15-2015 |
20140287017 | Solid Forms for Tissue Repair - This invention provides aragonite- and calcite-based scaffolds for the repair, regeneration, enhancement of formation or a combination thereof of cartilage and/or bone, which scaffolds comprise at least two phases, wherein each phase differs in terms of its chemical content, or structure, kits comprising the same, processes for producing solid aragonite or calcite scaffolds and methods of use thereof. | 09-25-2014 |
