General description
CHEMICON′s Osteogenesis Quantitation Kit provides all the necessary reagents and a protocol to enable quantification of osteogenesis using a standard plate reader. This product is useful for studying the effects of growth factors, drugs and toxic agents on bone formation and for screening candidate osteogenic pharmaceuticals. Also, studies examining the intracellular signaling pathways regulating osteoblast differentiation can be facilitated by use of this kit.
The kit includes Alizarin Red Solution, a staining solution which can be used to visually detect the presence of mineralization in bone tissue. Also included are reagents for extraction of Alizarin Red from stained cells, and a protocol for performing quantitative analysis of the extracted Alizarin Red. Enough reagents are provided to perform 48 quantitation assays on 24 well plates.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Osteoporosis is a common aging-related disease diagnosed primarily using bone mineral density (BMD). Extracellular vesicles (EVs) remain unexplored in the context of osteoporosis. Towards this, EVs were isolated from plasma of a discovery cohort with 8 non-osteoporotic and 8 osteoporotic

Reconstruction of bone defects represents a serious issue for orthopaedic and maxillofacial surgeons, especially in extensive bone loss. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) with tri-calcium phosphates (TCP) are widely used for bone regeneration facilitating the formation of bone extracellular matrix

Implant-related infection is difficult to treat without extended antibiotic courses. However, the long-term use of antibiotics has led to the development of multidrug- and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Thus, alternatives to conventional antibiotic therapy are needed. Recently, mesenchymal stem cells have
