OsteoBiol® TSV Gel (Porcine)

Detail

Product description

The purpose of this product is to provide mechanical stability to bone substitutes and barrier membranes.

OsteoBiol® TSV Gel is sterilized by Gamma irradiation and is radiotransparent. It contains heterologous type I and III collagen gel with polyunsaturated fat acids diluted in aqueous solution containing a biocompatible synthetic copolymer that gives OsteoBiol® TSV Gel thermo-reversible and thermo-gelling properties. At low temperature (4°C) the gel is relatively flowable and easy to mix and manipulate with graft but becomes more viscous when in situ and exposed to body temperature.

OsteoBiol® TSV Gel must be refrigerated for at least 20 minutes at 4°C before use, in order to reach the low viscosity (LV) phase, which makes it easier to mix with OsteoBiol®Gen-Os® or to apply on OsteoBiol® membranes.

At room temperature, the product remains at LV phase for few minutes, whereas once in situ its viscosity quickly increases with body temperature. OsteoBiol® TSV Gel in LV phase can be used instead of saline for hydrating and mixing with OsteoBiol® Gen-Os®. The result will be a sticky mixture easy to place and extremely stable once in situ.

OsteoBiol® TSV Gel can also be applied to the rough side of the OsteoBiol® Evolution membrane to stabilize it during graft covering and whilst suturing.
