INJECTABLE IN SITU PORE-FORMING HYDROGEL SYSTEM AND PREPARATION METHOD AND USE THEREOF
An injectable in situ pore-forming hydrogel system and its preparation method and use are provided. The injectable in situ pore-forming hydrogel system uses an injectable hydrogel as a continuous base phase, and isolated live cells and magnesium particles are distributed in the continuous base phase, where the injectable hydrogel is a precursor or prepolymer of hydrogel, which can form hydrogel by cross-linking. The injectable in situ pore-forming hydrogel system can be used to create pores while the gel encapsulates live cells, which makes use of both the injectability and porous structures of hydrogel, which is important for the repair of cavitary, surgically difficult and irregularly defective tissues; meanwhile, magnesium particles generate magnesium ions after the former undergoes gas production and degradation, which can improve the bioactivity of the gel and aid in tissue repair.

Injectable composite material for bone repair, and preparation method thereof
An injectable composite material for bone repair comprises a biological tissue material and bioceramics in order to serve as a three-dimensional scaffold for bone regeneration. The biological tissue material consists of microfibers having a naturally cross-linked structure without additional physical or chemical cross-linking, has superior biological compatibility, and can be slowly and completely degraded in vivo. The bioceramics in the composite material serves as a reinforcing phase. When combining the biological tissue material with the bioceramics, the composite material provides a template for bone tissue regeneration to effectively induce bone growth. The injectable composite material for bone repair can be used to fill bone defects, particularly critical-sized bone defects, and can be combined with a biological agent such as bone marrow to improve its biological activity. Therefore, the composite material can be widely used to repair bone defects caused by trauma, tumor resection, osteonecrosis, and infection.
Implant comprising a calcium salt-containing composite powder having microstructured particles
Implant comprising composite powder with microstructured particles, obtained by a process in which large particles are bonded to small particles, wherein the large particles have a mean particle diameter in the range from 10 μm to 10 mm, the large particles comprise at least one polymer, the small particles are arranged on the surface of the large particles and/or are non-homogeneously spread within the large particles, the small particles comprise a calcium salt, the small particles have a mean particle size in the range from 0.01 μm to 1.0 mm,
wherein the particles of the composite powder have a mean particle size d50 in the range from 10 μm to less than 200 μm and the fine fraction of the composite powder is less than 50 vol %. Therefore, the subject matter of the invention further are implants obtained by selective laser sintering of a composition comprising a composite powder, especially as an implant for applications in the field of neuro, oral, maxillary, facial, ear, nose and throat surgery as well as of hand, foot, thorax, costal and shoulder surgery.
