Increasing growth factor bioavailability from tissue allografts
Supervisor: Sean Peel
Bone matrix contains numerous growth factors. When it is demineralized it can become osteoinductive. However the osteoinductivity of bone matrix is variable. One limitation is the limited bioavailabilty of the growth factors. This project is aimed at improving the osteoinductivity of bone allografts by increasing the bioavailability of the growth factors in the matrix.
Keywords: Bone allograft; bone morphogenetic proteins; BMP; bioavailability
