PREPARATION OSTIM APATITE FOR STIMULATING GROWTH IN BONE TISSUE

摘要

The invention relates to medicine, in particular reconstructive bone surgery, surgical stomatology, traumatology and orthopaedics. The proposed agent for stimulating growth in bone tissue is based on hydroxy apatite and takes the form of an aqueous paste with a concentration of 18-36 wt.% in which the size of the microparticles ranges from 0.015 to 0.06 mu m. The agent is characterized by a high degree of dispersion and a specific free surface area of about 100 m<2>/g. By contrast with all existing agents, it is not an osteoconnector, has pharmacological properties in the sense that it directly stimulates tissue growth and has no side effects.
