New synthetic grafting material kills bone cancer and regenerates bone
SMRTR summary
Researchers have developed a synthetic bone graft material that kills bone cancer cells, fights infection, and rebuilds bone simultaneously. By adding gallium oxide to a glass compound, cancer cells absorb far more gallium than healthy cells, triggering self-destruction. The material also completely blocked dangerous bacterial growth at surgical sites.
