Reports from Japan, Finland and Scotland advance knowledge in biomedical engineering research
August 14th, 2006
Reports from Japan, Finland and Scotland highlight recent research in biomedical engineering. Study 1: Osteoblast adherence and migration efficacy differs depending on the type of titanium surface used. "The first event occurring at the boundary between a metal implant and living tissue is the attachment of cells onto the metal surface of the implant. The attachment characteristics of the metal in this situation are critical in determining its biocompatibility and usefulness as artificial bone and tooth implants," scientists in Japan report. According to C.Y. Li and colleagues at Ehime University, School of Medicine, "Using the...
