Quickset™ Calcium Phosphate Cement

Features and Benefits:

Quickset calcium phosphate cement* is a macroporous, injectable, hardening and resorbable bone filler provided in an easy-to-use, closed mixing system.

Composition:

The mixing system is a dual-chambered syringe containing a powder and mixing liquid.

The powder chamber contains a mixture of calcium phosphates and an organic polysaccharide polymer; the polysaccharide is a highly biocompatible polymer that optimizes the viscosity, cohesiveness, and macroporosity.

The mixing liquid consists of a sodium phosphate solution that facilitates the setting time (crystallization) of the cement.

The end product is a calcium-deficient apatite very similar to the mineral phase of bone.
