AI Article Synopsis
- A new BMP-like protein has been isolated from ossein using a novel protocol.
- The protein was characterized through techniques like Fourier-transform IR, SDS/PAGE, and was combined with hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) for controlled release.
- The protein showed similar IR spectrum peaks to BMP from bone matrix, had a molecular mass of 18-21 kDa, and provided sustained release from HPMC for 3 days.
Article Abstract
A new bone-morphogenetic-protein (BMP)-like protein has been isolated through a new protocol from a novel source, ossein. The BMP-like protein was hydrophilic and characterized through Fourier-transform IR studies, SDS/PAGE and coupled with a neutral binder, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) for control release. The IR spectrum of the protein showed peaks in tandem with BMP from bone matrix, and its molecular mass was in the range 18-21 kDa. Sustained release from the surface of HPMC was achieved for a period of 3 days.
