  • Patent number: 8008357
    Abstract: In the process of producing a porous body containing a fibrous apatite/collagen composite by gelating a dispersion comprising the fibrous apatite/collagen composite, collagen and water, freeze-drying the resultant gel to form a porous body, and cross-linking collagen in the porous body, a method for controlling the average pore diameter of the porous body by the solidification time of the gel in the freezing step.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 23, 2005
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2011
    Assignees: Hoya Corporation, National Institute for Materials Science
    Inventors: Daisuke Shoji, Katsumi Kawamura, Takehiko Nakajima, Junzo Tanaka, Masanori Kikuchi, Toshiyuki Ikoma, Naomi Mochizuki
  • Patent number: 7732573
    Abstract: A method for producing a porous body comprising apatite/collagen composite fibers comprising the steps of gelling a dispersion comprising long apatite/collagen composite fibers having an average length of 10-75 mm, short apatite/collagen composite fibers having an average length of 0.05-1 mm, and a liquid; freezing and drying the resultant gel to form a porous body; and cross-linking collagen in the porous body.

  • Publication number: 20090149634
    Abstract: A porous body comprising apatite/collagen composite fibers, which has a half-value period of strength of 0.8-1.6 hours, the half-value period of strength being the time until the strength of the porous body of 10 mm×10 mm×4 mm comprising apatite/collagen composite fibers is reduced to half, after the porous body degassed by pressure reduction to 3 kPa (absolute pressure) for 10 minutes in a phosphate buffer saline is given a 20-% strain at a speed of 10 mm/minute.
