An automated 3D-printed perfusion bioreactor combinable with pulsed electromagnetic field stimulators for bone tissue investigations
March 2022 Abstract In bone tissue engineering research, bioreactors designed for replicating the main features of the complex native environment represent powerful investigation tools. Moreover,…
Low-power electromagnetic stimulation of osteotomized rabbit fibulae. A randomized, blinded study
Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine whether low-power-consuming symmetrical-waveform electromagnetic stimuli could increase the stiffness of fracture sites in a rabbit fibular-osteotomy…
Translational Insights into Extremely Low Frequency Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (ELF-PEMFs) for Bone Regeneration after Trauma and Orthopedic Surgery
Abstract The finding that alterations in electrical potential play an important role in the mechanical stimulation of the bone provoked hype that noninvasive extremely low…
In vivo and in vitro effects of a pulsed electromagnetic field on net calcium flux in rat calvarial bone
Abstract Although PEMF’s have been found to promote fracture healing and to modulate the activity of bone cells in vitro, effects on bone metabolism are…
