With regard to nScrypt, the applications and cures for this technology are endless. Implants, replacements, up until and including the present, have been made with foreign ingredients like titanium and other metals. The future of this science now lies with the technology that allows for a more biologically familiar biomaterial.

Ultimately, this breakthrough could lead to the creation of implants that actually mimic the bone itself.
