In vitro and in vivo methods to determine the interactions of osteogenic cells with biomaterials.

To assess new biomaterials for possible use as bone graft substitutes, a number of techniques allow interactions with osteoblastic cells to be studied, with respect to effects on proliferation and differentiation of osteoprogenitors. In vitro models include the use of bone explant cultures, fetal ra...
