Product Overview
KINEX® PLUS Bioactive’s components are designed to recruit and signal osteoblasts, promote early vascular development and bind proteins necessary for bone regeneration. KINEX® PLUS utilizes The Power of Bioactive Glass™ to help promote bone formation and healing in the posterolateral spine, pelvis, and extremities.
• Cell Recruitment and Signaling: The regeneration of damaged bone tissue involves the migration and proliferation of osteoblasts to the site. Bioglass® recruits these cells and stimulates the production of growth factors that amplify the cellular activity responsible for bone formation.
• Angiogenic Potential: Hyaluronic acid has been shown to help promote early vascularization and attracts osteogenic precursor cells, which may lead to earlier bone formation.
• Protein and Cell Binding: Collagen provides a resorbable osteoconductive scaffold that binds proteins and cells.
KINEX® PLUS Bioactive provides exceptional handling characteristics and is available as Putty and Gel.
• KINEX® PLUS Putty: Moldable putty that is cohesive and easily packs into in the posterolateral spine or bone voids.
• KINEX® PLUS Gel: Extrudable formula packaged in a luer lock syringe for controlled delivery. (http://www.globusmedical.com/)
