Blood-Derived Living Material Offers New Hope for Bone Repair, Study Finds
Samples of the implant material created in the lab. (University of Nottingham)When skin is injured, blood clots naturally initiate the healing process. Building on this mechanism, scientists have created a blood-based implant that accelerates and enhances tissue repair, particularly for broken bones.The research team describes this innovation as a "biocooperative regenerative" material. By incorporating synthetic...
