Participants

Reaction Steps

Another aspect of the invention includes an injectible paste having a mixture of a reactive amorphous calcium phosphate powder, the amorphous calcium phosphate having a calcium to phosphorous atomic ratio in the range of about 1.55 to 1.70, and alternatively about 1.55 to 1.65, and alternatively 1.55 to 1.6, and reactive vacant sites, and a second calcium phosphate powder, and an amount of water sufficient to provide the desired consistency. The water is buffered to a physiologically acceptable pH. The paste is hardenable at body temperature.
