A 3D printable bio-active glass could be used to repair bone damage and help them grow back, a study suggests. The newly developed bio-glass—made with “green” and "cost-efficient" methods—was found to ...

No one thinks of glass as a replacement for bone. But researchers in China have developed a 3D printable bio-active glass that edges closer to the bone’s resilience. In animal tests, it supported bone ...

The paper introduces a novel bioactive glass that outperformed both standard glass and a widely used commercial bone substitute in preclinical trials. Glass is generally thought of as fragile, but in ...

Researchers in China have developed a 3D printable bio-active glass that edges closer to bone resilience. In animal tests, it supported bone cell growth longer than plain glass and nearly matched a ...
