Preparation, characterization and in vitro osteoblast growth of waste-derived biomaterials

Renewable raw biocompatible materials can be prepared from beer production waste, that due to their nature contain the main chemical components present in bone (phosphorous, silicon, magnesium and calcium). Their characteristics can be tailored for use as replacement candidates in osteoporotic treatments, coatings for prostheses, bone grafts and odontoestomatologi implants, for example, with greater cost effectiveness than conventional scaffolds and eliminating the use of non-renewable raw materials or toxic substances in their preparation.
