Nobil Bio Ricerche philosophy is to think at implant devices surfaces as the contact point between two Worlds that need to communicate. For this reason, we research and work to develop a common language, that would allow information exchange between implant devices materials and cells&tissues that host them in the body. Roughness, chemical composition, surface immobilization of specific molecules, drug-release, become the tools used by the device to communicate with the basic component of the host tissue, the cells, and to direct their behavior: implant devices surfaces as an active interface with cells is the key-philosophy of Nobil Bio Ricerche, a philosophy that overtakes the classical inert and mechanical approach and calls into action new biotechnological knowledge applied to materials. This vision is implemented in the surface treatment and packaging of dental implants, through approaches aimed at cell stimulation and prevention of unwanted side-effects, by careful chemical and biological cleaning of implant; through the development of innovative treatment and materials, based on the control of interfacial cell behavior; through a continuous research activity on the cell-implant interface, backed by in-house specific analytical and in vitro facilities Nobil Bio Ricerche goal is to play as an active and driving force in the biotechnological revolution of implant devices

Clinical study on a novel surface treatment of dental implants starts
The appointed ethical committee just approved the clinical study aimed at the evaluation of the efficacy of a novel process of surface modification of dental implants developed by Nobil Bio Ricerche. The study, that will start with the enrolment of the first patients in the next few weeks, involves for the first time a biomolecular modification of the implant surface. It is part of the internal development project: Perimplantitis: a global materials approach. Initial results will be available within about one year

Tests concluded on innovative surface treatments for implants in osteoporotic bone
The release of the test report concluded the section of investigation jointly performed with Istituti Ortopedici Rizzoli on novel surface treatments for implant devices in osteoporotic bone. In this study Nobil Bio Ricerche tested the efficacy of several novel approaches to the surface modification of implant devices in pathologic bone. The interesting findings obtained are at the basis of future applications

Asti Volley, local excellences and local development
The Nobil Bio Ricerche commitment to virtuous local development is at the basis of its support to an innovative cooperation project among Asti Volley, Asti Studi Superiori, Scuola Universitaria Interfacolta di Scienze Motorie, Master in Sviluppo Locale. The Company believes that a local excellence acting in a high-communication-potential field, such as Asti Volley, can become a driving force in spreading the name of the region and in feeding its economy. Details on the project and interviews can be found at http://www.piemontenotizie.com/2012/05/08/asti-volley-il-brillante-futuro-della-squadra-femminile-di-pallavolo/
