Title:

SrTiO3 Based Composite as Spherical Granules and Porous Scaffolds for Dental and Orthopaedic Applications
Value Proposition:

New ceramic is suitable for use in the repair of infected or aseptic bone defects in a wide variety of orthopaedic, dental and maxillofacial abnormalities as a substitute for natural bone material.
Summary Application:

Preclinical trial completed
Advantages:
  • The porous SrTiO3 sample found to be biocompatible and gradually release of Sr2+ ions in body fluid
  • Monolithic SrTiO3 sample showed 3 times higher compressive strength than Hydroxyapatite (HAp) 
  • In vivo study showed more new bone formation in SrTiO3 composite scaffold than the HAp scaffold
