Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9727886A1] The invention features a bioprosthetic article including a biocompatible material having at least one bound exogenous storage structure, the storage structure having a quantity of calcification inhibitors releasably bound thereto. The storage structure can be a protein or a synthetic polymer. The calcification inhibitors include metal ions and phosphatase inhibitors generally. Bifunctional metal chelators can be bound to endogenous proteins to deliver metal ions.
