Biomet Announces Acquisition of the Assets of Cartilage Repair Company Cartilix

        
Cartilix was founded in 2004 to develop cartilage repair and regeneration solutions. The company developed ChonDux™, a proprietary cartilage regeneration technology for repair of knee cartilage. ChonDux™ technology uses a biological adhesive and hydrogel to fill articular cartilage lesions.
ChonDux™ technology is not yet commercially available. Clinical trials are scheduled to begin in Europe during the first half of 2010 with a U.S. clinical trial anticipated to follow thereafter.
