Product Overview
KINEX® Bioactive’s components are designed to recruit and signal osteoblasts, promote early vascular development and bind proteins necessary for bone regeneration.
• Cell Recruitment and Signaling: The regeneration of damaged bone tissue involves the migration and proliferation of osteoblasts to the site. Bioactive glass recruits these cells and stimulates the production of growth factors that amplify the cellular activity responsible for bone formation.
• Angiogenic Potential: Hyaluronic acid has been shown to help promote early vascularization and attract osteogenic precursor cells, which may lead to earlier bone formation.
• Protein and Cell Binding: Collagen provides a resorbable osteoconductive scaffold that binds proteins and cells.
KINEX™ Bioactive provides exceptional handling characteristics and is available in multiple forms including Putty, Gel, and Strip.
• KINEX® PUTTY: Moldable putty that is cohesive and may be easily packed into osseous defects or voids.
• KINEX® GEL: Extrudable formula packaged in a luer lock syringe for controlled delivery.
• KINEX™ STRIP: Compression resistant, flexible and maintains shape when hydrated. Flexible strips may be packed into a defect. (http://www.globusmedical.com/)
