Bone Abstracts

Calcium phosphate cements (CPC) are used as bone graft substitute, e.g. in the treatment of lytic bone lesions in multiple myeloma. CPC provide crucial advantages, such as osteoconductivity, biodegradability and the potential drug loading. Though, it lacks retarded drug release for short-/long-term treatment due to the free diffusion of small molecules through the micropores in the CPC.Thus we present dendritic glycopolymers (DG) consisting of poly(ethyl...
