Bone substitution materials involve micrometric and/or nanometric HAP(hydroxyapatite), calcium sulfate and bone growth inductor proteins(osteogenic growth peptide(OGP) or bone morphogenetic proteins(BMP-2)) or inhibitor proteins(osteocalcin(OC)), with the aim of inducing bone generation. HAP is a bone osteoconductor material and when it is combined with a protein like BMP, the new composite behaves as a osteoinductor material. 3, record 1, English, - osteoconductive
