CALCIUM-PHOSPHATE BONE SUBSTITUTES:
NATURAL COMPOSITION, HIGH POROSITY
BIOCERA-VET® BONE SURGERY RTU, ready-to-use highly injectable self-hardening calcium-phosphate cement, is made from tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) and ortho-phosphate salts that after crystallization give rise to calcium-deficient apatite crystals. This is chemically close to the mineral components in natural bone. Therefore, BIOCERA-VET becomes well integrated in the bone matrix, resorbed by osteoclasts, and progressively replaced by newly formed bone.
BIOCERA-VET has a full range of micro, meso and macropores that makes it highly porous. This supports osteoconduction, facilitates cell colonization and biological fluid penetration, which promote bone remodeling and formation.
In addition, once injected, BIOCERA-VET makes close contact with the adjacent bone, providing mechanical support and promoting new bone formation. Its highly injectable and fast self-setting properties give you the possibility to save time and improve the efficiency of your bone surgeries.

“BIOCERA-VET BONE SURGERY RTU is easy to inject into the bone defect with or even without a cannula. The haste of mixing the product and placing it, is now out of the picture. This allows to have the product at hand and using it multiple times.”
Dr Y. SAMOY, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ECVSMR
University of Ghent, Belgium
“BIOCERA-VET BONE SURGERY RTU has a simple and convenient presentation. The paste is highly injectable and easily fills the gap, taking the shape of the bone defect. Once in place it holds its position even when it is irrigated. It is a complementary product to have in store for surgeries.”
