| Abstract Scope |
BioMg 250 is a microalloyed Mg based alloy which can be strengthened by nutrient elements to reach yield strength levels of 300 MPa, with ductility of 10%, in biomedical implants. Its composition and processing have been optimized by in vitro corrosion and toxicity testing. This presentation will report on follow-on in vivo campaigns in animal models that demonstrate the bioabsorption rates, lack of toxicity (biocompatibility) and positive clinical results of BioMg 250. |
