Regenerative biomaterials, a platform for enamel and bone.
Our first two patent-protected applications and the mechanism each is designed around.
Scaffolds that let bone rebuild its own architecture.
Bone repair depends on structure as much as chemistry and biology. Our protein-derived scaffolds support bone cells to deposit more mature bone structures compared to current technologies.
A trabecular-scale scaffold that mirrors native bone architecture.
Our scaffold prevents soft-tissue infiltration to guide bone cells to grow spatially organised bone tissue.
For use in orthopaedic and bone grafting applications.
Keratin self-assembles into tunable membrane architectures with organised micro- and nano-scale structure.
In aqueous conditions, the keratin surface hydrates and supports stromal-cell attachment, spreading and interaction.
The membrane preserves a protected regenerative space while limiting soft-tissue penetration through its thickness.
The keratin environment supports osteogenic signalling and progression toward a bone-forming phenotype.
New bone grows inward across the protected defect and progressively bridges the regenerative space.
The regenerated tissue develops increasingly organised collagen and lamellar-like bone architecture as healing progresses.
