Allegra Orthopaedics is the global licensee to a composite biocompatible ceramic material known as Sr-HT-Gahnite from The University of Sydney for veterinary and orthopaedic solutions. In preliminary studies, Sr-HT-Gahnite has duplicated the mechanical strength of bone and pre-clinical studies currently being performed indicate good bioactivity and ingrowth of bone into the synthetic scaffold prepared from this ceramic material.


Importantly, it is 100 times mechanically stronger than synthetic bone substitute materials in clinical use.
