Identification of new biomarkers specific for various pathological conditions is an important field in medical sciences. Body fluids have emerging potential in biomarker studies especially those which are continuously available and can be collected by non-invasive means. Changes in the protein composition of body fluids such as tears, saliva, sweat, etc. may provide information on both local an...

Calcium phosphate cements have received much attention in recent decades owing to their biocompatibility, in situ handling, and shaping abilities.
