Abstract excerpt

This article presents a strategy for design, engineering, and fabrication of a bioresorbable, manufactured bone graft substitute (BGS) device. The approach is based on established precepts of osteogenesis, molecular biology of hyaluronic acid and osteoinductive proteins, and theoretical preforman...
