Orthopedic and Dental Implants

Posted on November 1, 2006 by John C. Monica, Jr.

In an article published by Pharma Law Weekly dated October 31, 2006, Nano Interface Technology, Inc. (NITI) announced that it is considering opening a new factory in India to manufacture orthopedic and dental implants coated with nano-material. The Indian market for medical implants is one of the largest in the world, and NITI claims a "600 % increase in binding to bone proteins" through the use of its nano-coating.
