This patent expands the portfolio of bioactive glass/collagen patents to include the use of porous and non-porous bioactive glass, as well as various particle sizes,” said Greg Pomrink, Vice President, Research and Development. “This is important because it allows us to engineer the speed of bone healing and the rate of resorption of the bone graft,” he added.
