BioBond® is a micro and macro level technology that benefits through the implant not just on the surface.
ChoiceSpine’s BioBond®, proprietary porous trabecular structure, has been proven to create an environment that may promote early bone growth.
BioBond® Cell Study
The BioBond® surface technology cell study evaluated the osteoblastic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) on the ChoiceSpine 3D printed titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) porous trabecular structure. The BioBond® surface technology utilizes additive manufacturing to create distinct and intentionally designed submicron, micro, and macro interconnected architecture to optimize surface contact, load sharing, and osseointegration potential. The study aimed to characterize the ability of these surfaces to promote bone growth while minimizing inflammatory and fibrogenic responses across a controlled range of pore dimensions and porosity. Critical indicators of implant success, including cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation, were monitored via protein expression.
hMSC proliferation and migration through porous hierarchal structure A) 1-week time point and B-D) 4-week timepoints
SEM imaging analysis confirmed cell adhesion, interconnectivity, and 3-dimensional interaction with the semi-ordered porous surface topography over 7-, 14-, and 28-day time points. This proliferation pattern suggests that the porous structures supported surface-level cell adhesion and thorough cell penetration and interaction, mimicking natural bone architecture and providing evidence of the osteointegration that would likely occur in vivo.

BioBond®, the proprietary porous trabecular surface structure, effectively mimics native bone architecture, fostering mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteoblastic differentiation. The BioBond® osteoconductive and osteopromotive surface properties have been combined with additive manufacturing expertise to develop a complete product portfolio of state-of-the-art spinal implants.
