Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is an injectable and moldable ceramic material comprising porous calcium phosphate having surface-microporosity, and a water-free carrier, wherein the carrier is selected so as to disintegrate under physiological circumstances. The latter refers to the property of a carrier to dissolve, disassociate, or otherwise disintegrate after placement (e.g. through injection or implantation) into the human body. By selection of a water-free polymer or polymer blend which is combined with surface-microporous calcium phosphates, the favourable osteoinductive properties by virtue of the surface-microporosity can be retained for prolonged shelf life. |
