Abstract
A process for producing a biocompatible material includes the steps of mixing an extract of a fish scale-derived hydroxyapatite (with water content of 70 to 75% by weight) and of a fish scale-derived collagen (with water content of 40 to 60% by weight) in the weight percent ratio of about 8:2, stirring the mixture and drying the mixture by a hot blast in order to obtain a composite.
Claims3
A process for producing a biocompatible composite material, the method comprising:
- mixing (i) a first fish scale extract, said first extract comprising hydroxyapatite and having 70 to 75% (w/w) water content with (ii) a second fish scale extract, said second extract comprising collagen and having 40 to 60% (w/w) water content, thereby forming a mixture and wherein the hydroxyapatite:collagen weight percentage ratio in the mixture is about 8:2;
- stirring the mixture;
- and
- drying the mixture using a hot blast, thereby producing said biocompatible composite material.
