Our new product, BioAlmog, is a high-strength bone-graft material
derived from natural materials such as coral to bone-like hydroxyapatite.

It has innovative features that give it specific advantages in its
mechanical properties, in comparison to other commercially
available bone-graft products.

These advantages are due to the conversion treatment, and the
nano-coating with carbonate apatite, which uses a novel sol-gel
technique.

This new material and its production technique represent a
significant advance on the materials currently available for bone graft
and spinal implant technology.

The new bone-graft technology will be of great social benefit,
particularly for sufferers of arthritis and related disabling diseases.

Potential uses for the technology include bone-grafting under
load-bearing conditions, such as long bones and the spine, and
bioactive coatingsfor artificial joints, such as total hip replacements,
knee and dental implants.
